Article is in italian I couldn’t find any news about this in english but i believe it’s really important to share.

"Sono attesi dagli 80 ai 90 aerei all’aeroporto Marco Polo di Venezia. Jet privati da Los Angeles, New York, Londra e Dubai scaricheranno in laguna un carico scintillante di star, imprenditori, supermodelle, influencer e tycoon. Il traffico aereo privato sarà talmente intenso da richiedere un coordinamento speciale tra l’aeroporto di Venezia e gli scali di riserva a Verona e Treviso. "

"80 to 90 planes are expected at Venice’s Marco Polo airport. Private jets from Los Angeles, New York, London and Dubai will unload a glittering cargo of stars, entrepreneurs, supermodels, influencers and tycoons into the lagoon. Private air traffic will be so intense that it will require special coordination between Venice airport and the reserve stopovers in Verona and Treviso. "

    So, ev’s age such that the EV’s die with the batteries. Most the EVs on the used market are teslas* or absolutely at their end of life, as far as value goes-most of the cost of an ev is in those batteries.

    While I don’t disagree with the sentiment… the reality is that used evs are a shitty option. What we need to be doing, that would benefit everyone, is building out mass transit, that run 24/7 and at reasonable frequencies.

    (*which there are oh-so-many reasons to not drive, including that Tesla will still be profiting from you, even if you get it used. Because they track the shit out of you driving to train their FSD.)

      The EV battery dying the moment you look at it funny is a myth, if I were conspiratorial I’d say by the oil industry, but I firmly believe hanlon razor comes into play here.

      Yes they degrade, but they are still useful.

      LFP batteries (introduced around 2020) have an estimated lifespan of a million kilometers. The NMC ones less, around 400k, with warranties covering 200k.

      If you are really worried despite all the data, Renault allows you to buy the car and rent the batteries. Those cars are on the market for about 3k nowadays, plus battery rent 60€ a month. Never worry about the battery, if it degrades Renault gives you a new one. They know they will make a big profit, because again, batteries don’t degrade that easily.

      Mass transit is the best solution but plenty of people still need cars, and for those people used EVs are the best economic (and ecological) option.

        Yeah.

        So you’re kinda full of it aren’t you?

        15yo ev’s driven normally are going going to be out of warranty, and probably pretty close to EoL, which was my point to start with.

        Most used EVs on the market are approaching their end of life. And with batteries, range goes down before it’s technically EoL,

        The mileage you dropped is just another way to say that.
