About

What Wears Out answers one question for people buying or running a used electric car: what wears out, how soon, and how that compares with a petrol or diesel car of the same age. It publishes what public inspection records say about each model: how often it fails, what it fails on, and how that compares with petrol and diesel cars of the same age.
