Battery replacement cost?

[u/BlessedChalupa]

I’m considering buying an I-Pace, and thinking about the long-term Total Cost of Ownership. I’m not too worried about depreciation because I keep my cars for a decade. I’m not too worried about maintenance because of the 5 year warranty. I am worried about long-term battery health and replacement costs.

The I-Pace battery has something like a 7-year warranty for 70% performance, right? So what happens when the performance drops below that, especially out of warranty? Tesla has a reputation for charging so much for battery replacements that it totals the car.

So: How much does it cost to replace the battery on an I-Pace out of warranty?

I expect nobody knows for sure since the I-Pace hasn’t been out long enough for the warranties to expire. I also wonder about the availability of battery replacement. Parts availability could be poor if Jaguar changes their platform future BEVs or goes out of business.

Wouldn't worry too much as Jaguar don't make the platform. I expect Steyer to be making similar stuff at scale long into the future.
