As the automotive industry continues to move towards an all-electric future, how long electric vehicle (EV) batteries last is one of the major concerns for naysayers. To help assuage some of that fear, Tesla, the biggest name in the EV space, recently released its 2023 Impact Report. The report is full of data showing how long the brand's batteries last, and what Tesla owners and drivers can realistically expect from the EVs. Spoiler alert, it's promising news for current and future EV buyers.

Editor’s note: Matt Anderson, who wrote this piece, is the curator of transportation at The Henry Ford museum in Dearborn, Michigan. By most objective measures, today is the automobile’s golden age. Cars are more powerful, more efficient, and more capable than ever. The editors of the first issue of Motortrend would certainly marvel at our world of 800-horsepower performance cars, 30-miles-per-gallon SUVs, and vehicles that all but drive themselves on the open highway, let alone the latest electric cars, trucks, and crossovers. Most important, vehicles today are the safest in history, with traffic deaths hovering around 1.35 per 100 million vehicle miles traveled.

They say that the cars of tomorrow will be like "smartphones on wheels," and when it comes to modern electric vehicles in particular, many of them are already there. But that also means that cars are as adept at collecting your personal data as any of your favorite gadgets—and not necessarily without any guardrails around where that data goes. Now, thanks in large part to reporting by the New York Times, two U.S. senators are urging the government to crack down on how car data gets collected and sold.

Car Companies Know When You Speed. Then They Sell That Data

Let’s be clear: Lexus is not a sports car brand. Lexus built its image with a full-size, luxurious four-door sedan with the sort of vault-like quietness and rock-solid reliability that made the German luxury stalwarts spit out their hefeweizen, then continued that roll with similarly low-key SUVs and other sedans. But luxury and sport often go together, and usually it’s the sportiest variant that’s at the top of a luxury maker’s lineup. And so it goes that Lexus—as Toyota’s halo brand—has occasionally gone ham sandwich on the sporty end of things. Although many times that has meant a sporty (often very sporty) version of an existing car, the top dog on this list is a standalone supercar.
