I drive an EV now. Where's the 'never' option?

Not if you drive a pure EV Kona, Niro or Ioniq! People found out poor reduction gearbox design means it fouls up it's gear oil rapidly (compared to say, a Bolt which does not do that) and periodic changes are necessary - or at least one done early in it's break-in period. (Not to be confused with the hybrid versions of those three or the Ioniq 5 and 6)

That is fascinating and really shitty for people with those cars
