Replacement EV battery dilemas... Spark and Leaf
EV batteries are expensive. Any idea of if and when they'll every go down in price? I had thought that by now there'd be more aftermarket options and that those would be cheaper. But it doesn't seem to be that way yet.
A new 24kWh Nissan Leaf battery replacement went from some $5,000 originally to about $8,000 now (including labor).
Chevy has stopped supplying EV batteries for their Spark EV, even ones that are only 3 years old.
Sometimes the EV future looks bleak for those of us who buy used cars.
