It's a good question and the article doesn't supply an answer. However, all the car companies are doing precisely these tests and are engineering for a 10 year lifespan. That should cover the ownership years for 99% of car consumers.

I guess I should turn the question back on you. Why aren't you demanding that our car companies build cars that last for 20 years, since you are demanding that EV car battery makers do the same?

You aren't comparing apples to apples.
