Tesla's claims are their to make, they can say whatever they want and what incentive they have to say something against the whole category of their main and only product. They have been saying bunch of stuff about automated driving, Tesla truck which isn't even possible under current laws of physics. The real world mileage depletes with every usage and depletes faster. Having more charging stations along the way isn't very helpful because charging isn't instantaneous. If your battery lasts barely 50 miles, a charging station every 40 miles isn't helpful because you'd be sitting ducks there every 80 miles or so waiting your battery to have enough energy to catapult you to the next charging station. About costs - I did inquire it myself for a German EV, battery had to be imported and I was quoted around 20,000 USD. Tesla has been quoting this much as well [0] Whereas a full ICE engine rebuild would be 1/10th of that, easily. https://electrek.co/2021/09/13/tesla-battery-pack-replacement-repair/ https://electrek.co/2021/09/13/tesla-battery-pack-replacemen...
