Yeah I deleted the comment after I realized the article was a terrible example. You got a really good point and more focus should be put on the battery within EVs. Even though the "car" can last far beyond 200k miles, the battery must last at least as long in order to become more ecological compared to combustion engines. Battery manufacturing obviously needs to be improved.
