The big issue is that Model 3 and Model Y only have 73%ish of the range when brand new, and then after 3 years that drops down to ~64%ish of its advertised range.

    For what i need a car now a days, 500km per charge would be plenty for me, and i wouldn’t even care about fast charging and stuff. So now you only really get 300ish km per charge in the real world. Okay that would still be enough for me. But then it also gets worse and worse with each charge… Idk, maybe it’s not as much as a problem in the real world, but in my head i’m not sure if i could deal with that. Imagine your range goes down every time you fill up your car with gas, i don’t think people would be fine with that. A gas car loses power over the years, but i think losing range is so much worse, especially considering a new battery is as expensive as a new car. And i really actually like EV’s
