Given Tesla’s market share, your claim that easily replaced batteries is “typical” isn’t accurate. A large percentage isn’t replaceable so it’s something consumers should consider when choosing a brand.

Tesla is 50% of all EV’s sold. So, yes.
That’s the point! You presented “swap a new battery” as obvious to the the OP when it’s not obvious. You have to first pick a brand that allows that. Model Y was first with structural battery but others like Volvo and BMW are coming soon.

I specifically DIDN’T say that! You said this:
You didn’t qualify that with “only if you buy a model that doesn’t have a structural battery.”
Volvo and BMW are coming soon.
