Not sure if we are seeing the consequences of early adopters to EV's now, it's been about 10-12 yrs since EV started getting popular. CBC has stories of many Nissan Leafs turning into bricks which could result in a class action legal suit. I feel that in the last 2-3 months, there has been a noticeable significant change of attitude towards EV's. Now we have to find answers to the question, 'what do we do with these cars and batteries?'.

I assume Tesla tech is a bit better in terms of battery degradation and hasn't seen the large numbers of dead batteries after ~ 10 yrs.
