I’m particularly interested in last three points. Do you mind to share some data?

For instance, where one recycle a Tesla battery, say in Poland?

I do not see to many chargers around and I believe the grid is not very modern here. Why do you think it can easily handle millions EVs? What about peak hours like nights? Do you think it will be env friendly, provided that majority of electricity in Poland is produced on coal plants.

EV initial cost is about 5-10 times more than a slightly used ICE in a perfect condition. Such a car car drive decades and will never reach in total spendings even initial cost of EV. I’m not counting charging that may not be very cheap. As electricity prices went up in recent years and may go up more.

When you stating something, think beyond your household. Your statements are not universal.

The battery can be recycled in Germany if Poland doesn't have the facility.

I think shifting them to static applications when they hit 70% capacity makes more sense, personally. For now, just recycle the ones that have actually failed. Or even just warehouse them until they can be recycled.

(Whether we actually do that or not, capitalism being what it is....)
