The average warranty for internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles varies depending on the manufacturer and region, but typically falls within the range of 3 to 7 years, with some up to 10.

So you're saying that ICE vehicles typically last 10 years or less.

There are risks in buying anything, new or used. The warranty is just a limited guarantee.

It used to be said of ICE vehicles that they'd never replace the horse. The big problem being that you can't grow the fuel.

With EVs, at least power points are pretty common. That wasn't the case for petrol stations, back in the day.

It's a management issue. The adaptable survived. You're just proving that you're not a survivor.

Yet you can only assert your belief @Whirlybird
Even a little trustworthy evidence would enhance your credibility.

@Whirlybird @kudra
The condition of a used EV depends on how it's been treated. EVs are not alone in that.

In general, the battery of a modern EV can be expected to last for the useful life of the vehicle. "... scientists discovered that battery replacements were very rare, with only about 1.5 percent of EVs needing a replacement – and almost all of those replacements were under warranty."
