EV (world wide) use Lithium Iron Phosphate a cheaper battery with a very long life, more 50%. The CATL version expected life is 1,200,000 miles. EV drive trains has an expected life of 1,000,000 miles. In an application like a police car with 125 mile a day use, gas cares last about 200,000 miles. So 4 gas car to one EV means less capital cost, less CO2 to produce one EV compared to 4 gas police cars. Fossil fuel use 0, savings over 12 years capital, fuel and maintenance about $100,000.
