Thinking of buying a nearly-new SV (2018 w/ 5k miles) and having never had an electric vehicle, we're looking down the road a little (so to speak). I understand the batteries will require replacement in 10 years or so. What assurance is there that replacement batteries would be available ? And are advances in battery technology that occur between now and then likely to be incorporated into whatever replacements are available ? Thinking possibly not, if the available replacements were manufactured earlier (e.g. now), so newer technology might be unavailable in the proper form-factor/packaging. Are my questions ridiculous because they require a crystal ball ? Thanks.
