I have a 2015 leaf and while the estimated battery range has gone from 90’s to 60’s on mileage, it’s still kicking and gets me around the city just fine.
Comment on Auto execs are coming clean: EVs aren't working
proudblond@lemmy.world 1 year agoMy EV is just over 5 years old and the battery is fine. I know it’s anecdotal but the batteries last longer than projected.

My 5 year estimate may actually be outdated already fortunately. First article popup about it shows 8 to 12 years now depending on the company and battery type. This is actually fantastic to see that as I was quite worried the tech would stagnate eventually.
