    the older nissan leafs didn’t have any mechanisms to cool their batteries so they degraded really fast and they’re about the only cars old enough to have that long range real world data on, they’ve fixed that issue now

      Do you guys seriously think the batteries don’t degrade? They do, and they will need replacing. Plenty of hybrid batteries have been replaced. Or is everyone still stuck in “cars only last 200,000 miles” mentality, because electric motors last a hell of a lot longer.
