Description

Remember president Biden is pushing for more people to buy a electric vehicle. He even gave Ford motor company a free advertisement with him driving a experimental Ford truck. Biden also took an electric 1,000-horsepower GMC Hummer EV for a very quick test drive while visiting GM's Factory Zero plant in Detroit and Hamtramck, Michigan, on Wednesday to celebrate the factory's grand opening and promote government support for electric vehicles Before you jump into a EV find out how expensive it is to replace the battery. I almost bought a Smart for two electric car. Lucky for me My wife said no way that she would drive something that small. Two months later the battery died and my friend was checking wrecking yards for a battery. He did not want to spend $16,000 to purchase a battery from Mercedes. He decided to cut his loss and part out the car. Here is a example. Electric vehicles (EVs) in the United States grow more popular in recent years. While gasoline engines still far outnumber their battery-operated counterparts, demand for EVs gains steam. For at least one owner, however, the cost of replacing a battery was much greater than the value of the car itself. On August 25, a tweet went viral from Rob O’Donnell, senior national contributor for Law Enforcement Today, showing a battery replacement quote nearing $30,000. The cost analysis reportedly came from a dealership in Florida. Of the total, just under $3,000 went to taxes and labor. The rest was all battery on a Chevy Volt hybrid with 70,000 miles.
