Incidentally what is the purpose behind buying a car and renting a
battery? Does that mean you can actually rent several batteries and leave
one at home while driving on the other one?
Or do they expect them to pack up so early they need to keep renewing
them, a bit like 1970s Colour TVs?

An inducement to buy.

They are massively expensive and universally have **** poor performance.

They could waterboard me and I wouldn't have one.
