"Another issue is that if the batteries are stored with either too much or too little charge... they deteriorate quickly and the damage cannot be reversed. The most expensive component in an electric car is the battery. Once it is shot... in many cases the vehicle can be left with almost no value at all."
Makes me wonder what the vehicle and the vehicle battery self discharge rates are for the idle vehicle on the car lot.

I parked my car at 50% for 10 days and it was still 50%. The car is 4 years old and this was. August 8 through 18.
