High-mileage electric cars found more reliable than petrol

Original: High-mileage electric cars are more reliable than petrol ones, study finds

A new study finds that used electric cars with high mileage are more reliable than comparable petrol vehicles, challenging a common assumption that EV batteries degrade quickly and make older electric models a risky buy. The findings are drawing attention from drivers, car buyers and industry watchers, as they suggest EVs could hold up better over the long term than combustion-engine cars, with implications for the used-car market.

Why now: The findings challenge widespread scepticism about electric car battery longevity and used EV value
