... and the batteries last how long and cost what to replace?

Range is 83 miles. Batteries guaranteed for 5-10 years (Dependingon
how you treat them.). Replacement cost around £4,000

Within the 5-10 year period, the value of the average family car falls
to £4,000, who would want to spend an amount equal to the entire value
of an 'old' car to keep it on the road, when they are fed up of it and
it's beginning to look a little worn around the edges?
