And the fact they can't fully recycle them.
You need to look at Redwood Materials, a battery recycling company set up by JB Straubel (who was Chief Technology Officer at Tesla for 15 years). They're recycling batteries now.

I do like to come back to the Macan forum from time to time. It amuses me how anti-EV so many of you are. I really can’t be bothered to try and debunk some of the myths though. So just enjoy your EV bashing and I will enjoy driving mine 🙂

Hoping that your Taycan remains reliable & trouble-free, Ian! :)

Enjoy. 😎

What amazes me on this ‘Macan’ forum is why so many advocates are still driving their gas guzzling environmentally unfriendly Macans and not an EV ;)

But luckily the forum is open minded enough to still include owners of 911s, Boxsters, Taycans etc! What a friendly bunch! :) ;)

The owner of a Macan today may buy a Taycan next time and then a 911 further down the line. Good to have all views on here and get real life experiences.

I doubt there’s many Macan petrol engine owners on here that even want an EV, and if they did then best to join an EV or Tesla forum surely ;)
