Yup, as long as it's made VERY clear on purchase (and I don't mean buried in the manual). For ICEs oil changes are common knowledge -- EVs are new and much about them is NOT known.
I totally agree with this.
So it's in the manual, clearly, and anybody buying an electric car should read the manual. And if you don't then you are an idiot - plain and simple.
That seems a bit harsh. I'm sure plenty of people who buy their first electric car won't read the manual (maybe between 1% and 5%). Maybe instead of calling them an idiot and moving on, we should just say that for important stuff, they should be verbally informed upon purchase. I'd rather not make that 1% - 5% of people really pi$$ed off at electric cars when a simple education process would fix it.
