Nah look alcy, the battery life on a tesla is estimated at 300-500k it will outlast the car. Now, if you were running a coal-fired car, how long before the engine etc. wears out? 150k maybe? Perhaps less. Then what? Do you get a new engine and everything else? What does that cost?
Battery slowly degrading? Well, so does the performance on a modern car. It loses horsepower and uses more mpg with age.
So the cost of a battery is never likely to be an issue really.
Fancy a Tesla? No? Hate Musk?
But how many other loathsome company chairman are there? North Face guy was sent to prison recently for some pretty nasty crimes. Has anyone stopped buying their anoraks?
Lots of company chairmen have dreadful politics and a dark side, it’s often how they got there.
