It takes a really, really long time for EV batteries to "die." They absolutely degrade and lose range over time, but you should still be getting significant usable mileage out of them. This sounds like unfounded propaganda to me.
Not top mention that the batteries can be recycled at end of life to be made into new batteries for other cars.
