It seems that EV batteries are lasting longer than was first thought. Here in NZ, ten year old Leafs still get some kind of a price, despite having small batteries to start with. And they don't fall off a cliff, but get reduced capacity--which means they have enough capacity for a classic use case for an EV, daily commuting and pottering around the suburbs. There's always someone who says "Nobody wants EVs. I commute from Butte to Butte once a week." But there aren't too many people doing that, while there's loads of people banging round the burbs in mighty trucks. All that said, the Leaf has always been a car for people who aren't into cars, but want a transport appliance. Which is really quick away from the traffic lights. If you're daily driving doesn't include traffic lights, it's probably not the car for you.
