That is a horribly written article.

It says EVs will outlast their batteries, so they wont need replacement.

It doesn't say what type of gas engine fix it is being compaired to, or if the EV motor will need any other repairs (I believe general maintenance is less on EVs than ICEs, but the aricle gives no information.)
