[QUOTE="SID297, post: 16630160, member: 8858"] Think about the average 10-15 year old car someone on the lower rungs of the economic ladder would buy. How many 2011 model electric car aren't approaching the end of the useful life of their battery packs? Would a 2011 Honda Accord need a new engine given the same use? The poor are really going to be screwed by a major switch to EV. With a little maintenance you could drive a 2006 Ford Escape until the end of time, but a 15 year old EV will probably be in the junk yard. That brings another unintended consequence, what're the economic and environmental costs associated with 'prematurely' scrapping these EVs going to be? [/QUOTE]
