"...an electric vehicle's car battery likely won't need replacing for the life of the vehicle - provided it doesn't cop any damage...batteries are very expensive and their durability is also determined by how much abuse they get.
"Car makers currently reckon that their batteries will last anything from 10 to 20 years. Thus, manufacturers including Nissan and Tesla offer warranties of either eight years or 100,000 miles."
