    Interesting, stark difference from lithium batteries then.

    1.8% per year is still way too much over 10 years though, let alone 20. People only talk about EVs as new cars, but people forget most people can’t afford to buy brand new cars.

      Those are lithium batteries. This stuff isn’t degrading as fast in the real world as was initially found.

      A 350 mile car would become a 280 mile car in 10 years. It’s sufficient for 95% of drivers.
