Climate denier Matt Ridley claims that “batteries only last about 60,000 miles.”
That’s completely wrong. “Real-world data showed that Tesla battery degradation was less than 10% after over 160,000 miles.”

in reply to Jan Rosenow • •@Jan Rosenow It definitely is completely wrong, but so is 160k miles for 10% of battery capacity
For example #Mitsubishi #Outlander #PHEV seems to be able to barely hold 70% after 8 years and 160k km - Mitsubishi even reduced battery warranty for #EclipseCross PHEV to 66% battery capacity after 8 years and 160k km.
When customer wanted to test his gen2 Outlander before warranty ended, it was barely over capacity (1-2% iirc) required for warranty replacement.
