Does that mean if I buy an electric car with Li-ion batteries, they will last forever?

Ya, I am doubting the hype very much as I have quite a bit of experience with Lithium Ion batteries in a plethora of electronic accessories :-) I'm sure it's just marketing fluff.

Having said that, if the battery cell lasts say, 10 years and costs $20 to replace, that's still cheaper than what it costs me to replace my current battery every 2-3 years..
