I'm not arguing with an estimate. My argument is simply to refute the claim that "people don't buy EVs as often"... Which is based on estimates and and gut feeling, not exactly backed by any statistics at this point. Right now - we know for a fact that ICE vehicles can run for decades, we have only very limited data on Li-ion road use EVs. And even then, we will only have only a decade of a smaller number of older generation battery pack EVs. There are plenty of decades old EVs that are specialized, but they aren't anywhere close to what a Tesla is. We can't compare electric golf carts and Tesla Model 3.
