Cars refresh typically 5-10 years. Even like the Honda Civic FC, the refresh was delayed because of Covid and the refresh was extended to 6 years before Civic FE came out.

Yes, 10 years for Tesla models, sure look at their car sales now. Even BYD out sale Tesla now.

Of cause there are other factors battery might not drop that on the 8th year, maybe cause the car hardly used etc... but even before 8th year, battery also causing issues to cars, either blowing up or cause cars to stall.

Hey, don't have to believe me, my ICE cars are holding resale value pretty well.

who say cannot use after 10 years high mileage somemore and no more warranty on battery

No wrong or right. Many manufacturers also bet on EV many decades also, end up all failed badly, hence ICE reign till today. Who dare to say EV will win this time and won’t repeat previous failures?

Tesla show how to do it, others don't get it don't have a good product their EV can't sell so they blame the whole ev lol

Existing manufacturer has a vested interest not to develop to deeply into EV because it will cannibalize their existing market share. That's why you need a non automobile company like Tesla who has every interest to make it work.

Kodak did the same thing. They invented digital camera but did not develop further because it's eating their traditional film business. Others develop the technology and killed Kodak in the end.

They have the market cornered, sure they won't try to break it..making billions without competition anyone get comfy

Until Tesla come and sold a package, a car plus charging and the software in line with modern life..suddenly ppl are buying a Tesla than ice..it's such a threat need to spend money propaganda against ev and keep trying to stop or delay ppl buying ev lol

Fyi, Tesla has only a 4% market share in the total overall US car maket in Q1 2025.

In 2024, gas/petrol-powered cars still has a 78%  market share in the total overall US  car market.

Tesla has in some ways eat into the premium market, those bmw 3 and Merc c class market and with incentives and some price cut even eat into the Camry accord market

Percentage alone don't show the most important factor, some ppl that driven ice all their life buys a EV loves EV means they would buy EV for their next car
