It varies, currently, a lot.  They are warranteed for 100 K miles.  One Tesla supposedly is running over 500 K miles with same battery.  We can't know the lifetime of the current batteries like Ultium, GM may have an idea.  The Nissan Leaf had problems in this area, no cooling system.

I figure this is an area for improvement.

The US could produce battery raw materials and is to an extent today.
Yes we haven't really even begun exploiting our own resources in this area, because to date we haven't wanted to and haven't needed to.

Clearly, times change.

all these states banning the sales of new gasoline autos before the infrastructure is in place to support EVs will regret it

California even requests not recharging during peak load times

whats up with that

the new cars sales bans are well into the future

they are not today

infrastructure can be built with time & money

less time if more money

I guessing someday in the future there won't be much time and politicians will throw money at the problem and some lucky folks will profit

Yeah, it's off in a future where current politicans won't be in office.  And this is reversible of course.  California does need a lot more infrastructure if this is to happen, but even by 2035, more than half cars and LTs in the state will be ICE powered.  And used car sales could be incredible.

I'm about to depart for ATL and CDG.

I think probably buying new outside CA would be prohibited, but not buying slightly used.

That would be an interesting exercise on legality

Im not sure a state can keep you from buying a gas car in another state

It would probably go to SCOTUS

well, it would technically be a used car when driving back across the state line from Vegas

registration would be the issue, but working with registering vehicles has been fun forever

California could refuse to allow registration but again that would end up in court
