@Krisemann it's new compared to other stuff :3

electronics are another animal

especially power electronics

@Jack of Trades lithium ion has been around since the 90s

Just because you cannot see the complexity with your naked eye does not mean it's less complicated.

which you need for electric motor control

yeah I mean it's complex the way your computer power supply is complex

both ICE and EV today uses advanced computers

@Laucivol it has far fewer points of failure, for certain

which is to say, very

but ICE engines have had hundreds of billions of R&D

Uhh

a modern ICE engine is insanely more advanced than even 10-20-30 years ago

A bit more complex

as an electrcical engineer that worked with power electronicsd for over a decade, trust me that shit fails far more often

Than ur PCs PSU

yeah

but ICE cars fail too remember

nah, LOT more complicated than a regulated DC supply in your PC

Yeah

rectifiers are easy

Teslas are good at racking up a lot of miles but I think time deteroriates the battery much more

yes, granted it's complex

inverters are hard

but so are ICE cars, and in a different way

My Volvo has 309k km at it atm

nioc

There are teslas with 500k+ miles

If I replace all rubber seals in the engine now, it'll live to 700k km

At least

think there's some with a million?

400k miles is what ive heard

nah, ICE components are consistent with changes in temperature

I only see the "simplicity" of Teslas in the sense that it is more solid-state and has fewer points of failure

Not necessarily in overall design

ICE components also don't care about moisture

The longest lived car on earth is a Volvo tho
