Thank you fir this video. We are waiting for avModel Y. We have saved so muck money on hybrids and PHEVs for two decades. Never going back to pure ICE.

Wow, good solid advice (no pun intended). The EV revolution is coming. Hopefully, years down the road, when all these million and million of batteries are spent, technology will be able to address what to do with these batteries. Repurpose, recycle elements, etc. Society tends to be more reactive than proactive.
