If the lithium batteries would go 125 miles on a charge to offset the degradation on charging capacity, I'd buy lithium. Even Teslas lose 10% of their range and become more finicky with charging by 100,000 miles.
IMO, only Tesla will survive in the EV world. The other Johnny-Come-Latelys are going to fail because because batteries are still not advanced enough to replace over 100 years of ICE know-how.
I have a Yamaha on order and I know I won't need to worry about the things battery getting thin on me on several levels.
I have two electric bike's and did own an electric skateboard (lol).
