Soon all electrical vehicles will have this same issue. You'll be spending $10K every 7-10 years replacing the battery, but you won't replace the vehicle itself.

Yes, if electric cars keep being bought and public transportation stays the same.

Similar to hybrid costs it seems.

I think eventually electric vehicles will vehicles networked and operated by a public / private partnership where the need of a private vehicle is greatly diminished. You would just callup a vehicle for pickup and set the destination. Depending on the vehicle plan you subscribe to, the vehicle might have other passengers or be a private vehicle driven by a AI pilot. This program would offset the cost of batteries, remove the need for large parking lots, and make travel far more efficient.

You basically just reinvented the bus/taxi...

A modern take on it, yes. Someone far more people will use than buses or taxis.
