Original Note:
It is false that you need to replace an EV battery at year 5 or 6. Tesla vehicles, for example, come with an 8 year / 120k mile warranty. Batteries do degrade over time, but on average, they should have about 90% of the original pack size useable even after 10 years. https://www.jdpower.com/cars/shopping-guides/how-often-do-tesla-batteries-need-to-be-replaced
