Re:GM tells some Bolt owners to park 50 feet away from other... by jodrellblank on Wednesday September 15, 2021 @08:43PM (#28546446)
That can’t be right, it would leave your cars immobile after like 6 years, and getting half the range out of a tank after 3 years.

Cars are good for 20 years still going roughly as far on a tank as they did. I’ll believe 10% loss of mpg over a lifetime, I don’t track that closely, but 10-20% range loss on a tank per year, nahhh.

Sorry I meant a 5mpg decrease overall not every year. That would fit with the 10% you describe.
