My hope is that as more "legit" EVs are scrapped due to insurance total loss decisions, their guts and parts will be heavily in demand to power EV conversions.
I lost a 2018 Bolt EV this year after my insurance company decided it wasn't worth repairing. My car might not be the perfect candidate for this, but I know there will be parts worth scavenging off of it in the next life for the carcass.
I sure hope to be able to perform one of these conversions myself in the future once the broader "swap infrastructure" and knowledge bases expand to better support individuals like myself (similar to how you can find a wealth of knowledge and aftermarket support for Honda K-series engine swaps into many cars beyond even Honda models).
