Would you have an electric car if you had the money for a new car and were in the market for one?

Any petrol or diseasel car after 62,000 miles: Fuel tank capacity 100%

Are you going to guarantee that the engine is still running at 100% as it left the factory and all of the horses are still present?
How about the clutch?

No. And I wouldn't expect you, or anybody else, to guarantee that an electric motor will still be running at 100% efficiency?

But the claim was about fuel capacity. What has the engine, clutch
Etc.

got to do with the fuel capacity?

Google says:

The motor efficiency of an electric vehicle remains exceptionally high after 100,000 kilometers, typically staying between 85% and 90%. Because EV motors contain only a few moving parts and experience almost no mechanical wear, they do not degrade over time like internal combustion engines.

What's the capacity of a diesel tank got to do with battery capacity?

Absolutely nothing and it's completely irrelevant to this thread.

If you can't see that an EV's battery is its energy store and the a IC vehicle's fuel tank is its energy store then I don't know what to tell you.

Almost no wear ≠ no wear. How much do they wear? The answer, as in most things, is it depends. But if they last as long as the battery I suppose that's a win.

If you can't see that the capacity of a diesel tank had nothing to do with an EV thread then I don't know what to tell you.
