But you can still buy a 20 year old car with 250k on it for really cheap and drive it for the next 10 years till it completely craps itself.

The last thing I would call a 250k mile car driven for another 10 years is “cheap”. Large expensive things will be breaking left and right.

Yeah, but people with no choice buy them and ride them till they break. And some take a while to break.

In that situation they’d likely be better served with a 250k mile EV and whatever range it has left or purchase of a subpar pack from a wrecked EV of the same model to keep it on the road. EV just have so many fewer moving parts. The moving parts are what wear out over time.
