““This is an estimate for a 12 year old vehicle out of warranty and for a battery that is extremely hard to get, due to the older technology of the 12 year old vehicle,””

Guy was an IDIOT for buying such an old EV as the battery technology is changing almost daily, so OBVIOUSLY he was not going to easily find a replacement for something over 10 years old.

If he wants a car that old, he should quit virtue signalling and simply buy a gasoline car as they remain fixable for many DECADES after production.
