The battery is the biggest issue for me. I will not replace my entire car because they won't let us replace the battery.
The cars need to be repairable.
That's not a real concern. The chances of that happening are very close to zero.
I disagree. The amount of articles regarding the subject is substantial. And the battery is lithium, so the battery will degrade. Repairability is a buying point for me.
The battery is warrantied to 100 or 150,000 miles depending on where you live. The number of people who have ever had to replace their batteries is very very small. You're more likely to have to replace your entire engine and transmission on an ICE car. Degradation is not a serious concern with modern evs.
