❓Do EV Batteries Last? YES! Here’s proof❓
According to the humble, but brilliant and efficient Kia Niro electric, the answer is not just yes, but with little degradation.
251,712 miles on and it’s still showing 298 miles of projected range from a full charge.

It is utterly bizarre that the right wing voters like expensive fossil fuels. No one ever got free fossil generated electricity

This ‘i‘ ‘journalist’ 🤡 has form for this sort of anti/eV hit-piece.
Here she is, once again touting for edge-cases to fit her already established narrative.
Watch out, it’s at it again!
There won’t be an “I’m looking for people who get sick in diesel cars” request.

🤮 This for ~200 miles of ‘range’. Much less than my eV that costs fluppence to fill up.
Why do I still keep this old CRV? Emotional attachment.

I feel like I need a lie down after having to fill this up, or a stiff drink/shower after driving it.
At least it didn’t catch fire
So far.. 🙃
