"But the real trick is that the batteries won't be part of the selling price: Nissan's global approach will be to sell the car, but lease the battery pack.
The argument for leasing is that if you buy a gasoline car, the gasoline isn't part of the deal, and the battery pack in an EV (plus the electricity that it stores) can be likened to the gas needed to make a conventional car go."
Why are we likening anything to gasoline cars? Besides, the battery only holds the charge. Gasoline cars at least come with a gas tank to hold the fuel.
