   I don't think that's the point. They could just increase price on higher usage. So everyone pays the same, but those who use more pay more²

   I think this is a viewed as a problem due to the sheer amount of batteries neccessary to equip all those cars. Maybe think less in terms of used lead acid batteries but used car tires instead? though even those are refurbished nowadays.. :s
