I’m not here to argue about something that me, you or anybody else know a lot about. All I know is the price on these new type of cars are going to be more expensive, when batteries need replaced it’ll cost several thousands of dollars. Like you said Tesla are WORKING on a million mile battery, more like batterIES, these cars will take more than one battery. I noticed I didn’t see a price on these batteries. I know a little bit about cars since I’m retired from an auto engine plant after 38 yrs. I hope you’re right but to many people think these electric cars going to be built like HASBRO builds toy cars. Time will tell & I hope you’re right!
