EV owners with $199 per month additional autopilot subscription services (Tesla) and $22,000 battery replacement 9 years down the road (Tesla) need to be factored in with incentives to send EV's to the auto recycler for dismantling by year 7. The problem is accelerating vehicle depreciation for tax purposes to that point and whether auto manufacturers get into leasing in a big way with attractive buyouts at year7. The 3-5 year autoloan could be sacrosanct, but the rate swings will be there.

How are the electric vehicles paying their share for road repairs since they don't pay at the pump ???
