10 years old tesla model s still alive and kicking. only idiot will think battery will drop dead the following day after the 8 years warranty over.
your ipong battery still ok after 1 year warranty?
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.
