vexxxboy: Experts have previously warned electric vehicles are being written off after minor bumps because of the cost and complexity of fixing their batteries. there is no test to find out if the battery cells are damaged.

I think this is more FUD then truth to be honest. It'll be better to cite your sources. From what I can see like anything there are a few sources saying that a small bump can write off an EV which isn't fully true. There are tests that can be done on the battery pack to determine if things are damaged (modern battery management systems do just that) so the "no test" part is not entirely true either. For most vehicles the BMS shows per cell measurements which can determine damaged cells.
