There are now soooo many studies out showing that capacity in EVs drops significantly slower than ever expected. An EV that is used "normal" is basically best-case for Li-Ion batteries. You are charging the car once to twice a week and then you are charging it slowly over night or at your office, only using fast-charging when you are on roadtrips. You rarely drop your battery percentage below 30% and a lot of cars also dont go higher than 90% capacity without you explicitly activating it

Can you please send a source for the studies?
