Key take away, the maintenance costs worked out to 0.05 per mile. Around 19k in total versus what would have been approximately a claim of 100k in service costs for a Mercedes GLS for the same number of miles; I am not sure whose ass they pulled that cost out of of.
However take into account they had to replace the front motor at 36k miles and twice replace the battery pack. Battery degradation has been assumed to be around twenty two percent before the pack was replaced for mileage starting at 194k to 324k at replacement of pack #2
