Because it is a simple, and relatively inexpensive, matter to rebuild an engine to original specs. Not so simple, nor cheap, to rebuild batteries.

I completely agree, but it's a different question. If pure EVs won't do what a lot of people need/want them to do, they will keep on buying gas-guzzling ICE vehicles instead. You get far more bang-for-the-buck by making plug-in hybrids that use minimal amounts of fuel, which can come from biofuels.
