Yesterday, I just read that electronic cars will be junk in a few years after the battery gets old. Also, replacing wouldn't give the same performance. What do you think?

I think those kinds of stories are disinformation for the most part. I belong to a group called High Mileage Tesla Club. There are many of them with over 250,000 miles on the original battery and they're still working great. There is some battery degregation when they get past a certain age. For example, a ten year old Tesla with 250,000 miles on the odometer might only get 75% of its original range.
