Way to not address literally any part of my post. I didn't even bring up the problems of the original roadster. I said that it IS NOT SUPPORTED anymore. Meaning that it's life was <15years, which is NOT "far longer" then any ICE vehicle.

Then you just gloss over the meat of the post which is that batteries are an incredibly expensive and wasteful part of the cost of EV ownership, and that problem still hasn't been addressed in >20 years of EV development. You think we can just "swap batteries" as if that isn't an absurdly expensive procedure that most car owners cannot do on their own.

I didn't bring up [problem], I changed the wording to a [different problem] lol.

Batteries improve, you already have Tesla working on a million mile battery. Recycling will come, you're just wahhhhhhhh it's not here yet. It's all wahhhhhh it's not 100% right from the very start of the literal first production vehicle wahhhh!! You may continue your wahhhh rage, that's all it is. Peace.
