Oh, cool, so that’s what’s supposed to happen in a collision? I’ll totally buy one.

    I don’t have those numbers. I’d be happy to look at them if you find them though.

      Can’t say what the average EV age is, but I know for a fact it’s far younger than the overall fleet average. Overall fleet average in the USA is 12.5 years, while the Leaf and Model S, some of the oldest “mass market” EVs didn’t begin sales until 2011 and 2012, respectively. The Model 3 and Y didn’t begin sales until 2017 and 2019. The average EV is much, much younger than the overall fleet, and only make up about 1% of the total US fleet.
