I'm hoping that my car's battery only lasts for 7.9 years. It has an 8 year guarantee :D

Then I'd get a new one and my car would be practically new for 8 more years.

You'll more likely get a refurb that fills up to 70% of rated capacity. I own a Tesla and that is Tesla policy.

I don't own a Tesla and it's not Hyundai policy to give refurb stuff.
