As a point of interest I received an email the other day that had the topic "Things that will become obsolete in 10 -20 years. One of the items had to do with how much better electric cars will be. It laid out this scenario:
- A petrol/diesel engine has 20,000 individual parts. An electrical motor has 20. Electric cars are sold with lifetime guarantees and are repaired only by dealers. It takes only 10 minutes to remove and replace an electric motor.
- Faulty electric motors are not repaired in the dealership but are sent to a regional repair shop that repairs them with robots
