Tests in real-world driving conditions show that EV batteries may last nearly 40 per cent longer than previously thought, amounting to an extra 300,000 kilometres.

    True but I feel if this becomes commonplace. Good luck trying to sell your cars. Your brand will be dead. Then you have refurbished batteries and third party repair companies coming into the space since as you put it, the money is the battery.

      Would be amazing. At the moment I don’t know of a single brand opening up batteries to fix them. They all consider them a single replaceable component/module even though inside that’s far from the case.
