[QUOTE="SocialStealth, post: 6233522, member: 606051"] battery packs last ???? engine powering the battery packs lasts ???? alternator lasts ???? I remember reading someone making their own ev paid about 18k in batteries which were supposed to last about 10 years. They plan to produce 60,000 cars a year. such a small number would entail a virtually non-existent aftermarket, and even worse, a small market for replacement parts. Who is going to want to manufacture parts for a car thats rarer than a sega genesis? Dealerships. You will have to go to the dealership for any parts. Not only will there be a small demand for parts, thus high prices and low availability, but you will have to pay dealership prices. besides, what kind of idiot buys a new car? inflated depreciation rates are not for the average consumer. why buy a new car for 20k when you can buy a slightly used car for almost half the price?
