And engine wear is a problem these days? Most cars go to the scrapyard
on their original engine.
No need to rest on laurels. Engines could normally last a million
miles.
Most wear occurs on startup. Wear reduces efficiency.
Can you give some figures about this? Most engines are more efficient
after thousands of miles use than when new.
But electric motors could last longer than that.
But the rest of the vehicle won't. And electric motors still have bearings
which can and will fail.
The batteries are the problem.
And likely always will be. Despite the hype. And the idiots who think they
already exist.
