The Taycan has only been around a few years. Are these batteries that have been replaced or were the original cars tossed? I'm glad the batteries are getting additional use, I'm just afraid of how much other waste is being created. I know my boss leases a new Porsche every 3 years and it breaks my heart to think they aren't getting resold and are getting destroyed.

Was thinking same, packs from unsold leasing returns. But probably not so.
