True. The G1 Chevrolet Volt was quoted as having a 65% usable capacity. That wasn't my main point though. My main point was that the capacity loss will hit the smaller battery packs harder as you're using a more aggressive dod usage. Life cycle goes up like crazy the smaller portion of the pack you use. So where you may lose 20-40 miles of range on a chevy bolt its less of a matter and will take much longer vs what we saw in the leaf where the capacity drop in a car with an already short distance can become a big deal. Like driving 75 miles a day is totally possible, 230mi+ cycles a day... not so much. ie: Nissan good will battery replacements.

Good example: Tesla model S panasonic 18650s are rated from anywhere from 500 cycles under heavy usage (not possible the car's on board bms, but possible in say an aggressive use vape) up to 40,000 cycles keeping the dod between 30 and 70 percent.
Given the example of a tesla model S 85kW model that would be around 100 miles a day * 40,000 cycles... That could possibly net you a grand total of 4 million miles.
