Generally EVs get to 15-20k miles without issue, which is the break even point on the optimistic side:

Even ~40-80k (the high estimate for break even) isn't that many miles / doesn't take long to achieve.
There's been a lot of FUD recently about EVs being more damaging to the climate than ICE, please correct it when you see it.
