I asked the service manager at golf cars of the villages and he said they've been selling lithium battery powered cars for four years and they have never replaced a battery.
To further support the longevity of a lithium ion battery…I have a 2004 Toyota Prius with a lithium battery. It has 635,000 miles on it. 19 years on the original lithium ion battery and it is still going strong. My Toyota dealer told me there are several of these out there with well over 1,000,000 miles and are from the first version of the Prius approaching 25 years of service.
