High-mileage electric cars found more reliable than petrol cars
Original: High-mileage electric cars are more reliable than petrol ones, study finds
A new study reported by The Guardian finds that used electric cars with high mileage break down less often than comparable petrol vehicles, challenging the assumption that EV batteries and motors degrade quickly. Commenters are debating the findings, with some citing real-world battery longevity data and others questioning how the study controlled for vehicle age and maintenance history.
Why now: The study challenges common scepticism about long-term EV reliability, prompting debate among drivers considering used electric cars.
