People talk about a battery needing replacement when it's down to 90% or 95% of original capacity. Personally. I think it's ludicrous to spend ten thousand dollars to replace something that is 90% effective. So, all current Teslas on the road have million mile batteries if you're willing for a 330 mile range to turn into a 250 mile range. They work. With no maintenance. They just simply do what they're supposed to do. In a zombie apocalypse, you'd have 80% range after the grid was down for a few decades, as long as you had solar.</blockquote>
