I heard someone said that, at the end EV will cost you almost the same as gasoline vehicle, if you have to change the expensive battery every so often. Can someone please give me more info on this? Thank you so much.

I’m guessing you don’t actually know anyone who owns an ev. My coworker has been driving over 100km a day on his Leaf for nearly a decade and he’s only ever had tires and brakes done on it. I’d buy an electric myself if I didn’t need my truck for work
Really hard to believe your friends Leaf with more than 200k still holds a range of 100km, specially knowing the 2015 version had a initial range of 135 km
Driving a Leaf 100km a day does not mean that the battery has a range of 100km or more. It is extremely common to charge whenever you park, whether at work or when stopping at home or any time in between drives. With a charge in the middle of the day, even a car with a max range of 50km could still do 100km in one day.
The point he’s making is not about range, it’s about the longevity and the reliability of the car.
