If lithium batteries last 10+ years and there is some mandate forcing most cars to use them.
Where are the used batteries for these new cars going to come from?
Then if the plant is located on the left Coast it will cost a hazardous freight charge to ship the used batteries cross county for most locations, where is that money going to come from?
It would be nice but I don't really see it happening.
