Replacement batteries are really not a concern with EVs. They last longer than most folks expect and they come with pretty lengthy warranties.

It’s still ridiculous how expensive they are to repair or replace, and for sure that will hit some folks hard, but it really should be quite rare to replace an EV’s battery


Yes.

EVs are definitely better for the environment than ICE powered cads. But they won’t singlehandedly solve climate change, let alone all the harms when places prioritize single occupancy passenger cars at the expense of public transit.

And sure, I’m drawing a line here because cars are one of the precious few industries where you can still buy union-made.

Where do you draw that line?


You should also worry about if Chinese EVs meet reasonable labor standards. Which they don’t.


Replacing nazi cars with slave labor cars is a pretty fucked up idea.
