Take a 2018 Tesla Model 3 with 175,000 miles and a 2008 Buick LaCrosse with an L26 3800 also with 175,000 (+10 years). Which one will make it to 250,000 with the least amount of trouble?
EV's with heat pumps perform better in the winter.

I have seen ~20% hit in my efficiency in the winter with my Model 3 LR with the heat pump.
