    I don't know if this article has been posted, so here it is - https://www.energyandcapital.com/articles/why-lithium-is-king-in-rechargable-tech/5977
    Lithium batteries apparently have a life of 500 to 1000 cycles, so I would take the middle of these two extremes as "close" to the actual number of cycles obtained , so 750 cycles equals about 750 days of using your elec vehicle to get to work and back, and maybe a sunday drive (or a Saturday of running the kids to and from their sporting commitments) on the weekend  .  That works out to about 2 years of heavy use before the battery degrades to the point where you would be looking to replace it with a new battery pack.  Assuming a 4-5 year elec vehicle life (my lower guesstimate) , that equates to TWO battery packs for each new elec vehicle over 5ish years, along with the new vehicles coming on line.....lithium supply is probably going to be the bottleneck for new battery production, which should mean huge demand/rising prices....
