Article is in italian I couldn’t find any news about this in english but i believe it’s really important to share.

"Sono attesi dagli 80 ai 90 aerei all’aeroporto Marco Polo di Venezia. Jet privati da Los Angeles, New York, Londra e Dubai scaricheranno in laguna un carico scintillante di star, imprenditori, supermodelle, influencer e tycoon. Il traffico aereo privato sarà talmente intenso da richiedere un coordinamento speciale tra l’aeroporto di Venezia e gli scali di riserva a Verona e Treviso. "

Translation:

"80 to 90 planes are expected at Venice’s Marco Polo airport. Private jets from Los Angeles, New York, London and Dubai will unload a glittering cargo of stars, entrepreneurs, supermodels, influencers and tycoons into the lagoon. Private air traffic will be so intense that it will require special coordination between Venice airport and the reserve stopovers in Verona and Treviso. "

    Yeah.

    So you’re kinda full of it aren’t you?

    15yo ev’s driven normally are going going to be out of warranty, and probably pretty close to EoL, which was my point to start with.

    Most used EVs on the market are approaching their end of life. And with batteries, range goes down before it’s technically EoL,

    The mileage you dropped is just another way to say that.

      You don’t need to buy the first ever model produced, do you? You can buy a 10 year old car, which if driven 10k a year still has half the life of its battery available. Chances are it wasn’t used for road trips so it will have been driven less than 10k a year, leaving maybe 75% of its useful life. Even the first ones ever produced could have 5 or 10 years in them, depending on usage and mileage. Used EVs ARE NOT close to EoL in most cases.

      Plus you can get it inspected, get a battery certificate or even a second hand warranty of you are soooo worried. Or, as I said before, you buy the car and rent the battery. Doesn’t make economic sense, but falling to propaganda never does. There are easy solutions besides ranting on the internet.

      Again, hanlon razor applies here, so I don’t think you are sponsored by the oil industry, but you repeat their taking points exactly.
