The thing about the inherent reliability of electric motors seems important to me. Gasoline engines are shot after 4-6000 hours of operation. Where industrial electric motors last for 25-50,000 hours and can be rebuilt. Same is true for the inverters. And it feels like electric's are more repairable. (minus the smartphone on wheels thing Tesla has going on)

I feel like that's going to push manufacturers to increase the lifespan of the other components. Historically the short engine/transmission life limits the life span of the car which is why you don't for instance see any market for replacement interior parts. 20 year old car with cracked trim piece? Not manufactured. But if in 2 years you have a lot of mechanically perfect EV's with shot interiors? Seems like a market.
