    Because the overwhelming majority won’t wear out at 100k miles.

    You have any links you can point me to that backs that up?

    A JD Powers article states the following…

    On average, you should replace your Toyota’s battery every 8-10 years or 100,000-150,000 miles.

    Last I heard the batteries on any ev basically gets replaced at ~100k because they don’t hold a charge well, assuming the same weather conditions throughout the lifetime of the batteries. I even heard that specifically about Prius’.
