I consider the MB EQE sedan , but I wonder how much does it cost to replace the battery. I assume the battery would last at least 10 years.

I guess it is too early to tell the cost of the battery, I don't think MB has pricing yet for it but I could totally be wrong. I think read the warranty fine print, some countries for example, Mercedes will cover the battery for 8 years.

Yeah, I read from the survey that one of the reason people are not excited to jump in the EV bandwagon is the cost of battery replacement. I like to keep cars around 20 years, so I don't know if the EV battery could last that long.

If you are keeping that long, it is two folds, one maybe electric will take over the market or two maybe existing internal combustion engine powered vehicles will still be around if the latter is true, internal combustion engine powered vehicles will be cheaper to keep in the long run assuming petrol doesn't raise too much.

I agree. At this moment, the EQE price is high. I think $65K for a 300 mi range will be better deal.
