I have a Tesla not because I care about the environment, but because they perform fundamentally better than their ICE counterparts and are more fun to drive, imo. In the long run, they are better for the environment, and battery recycling is still being improved upon to reach full production scale Along with more cleaner energy production.,(reply>), @John thank you Horse Armour lol,(reply>), @BearSlayer69 Welcome to the new automotive market.  BMW is charging a subscription fee for the seat heaters to work.  This is the way ALL auto manufacturing is going to go.,(reply>), Wasn't Tesla charging money for additional unlocks for your car's range and stuff?,(reply>), They are considerably worse in the long run since the imaginary battery recycling is exactly that.
