This is a high risk high reward gamble by Tesla. If people take this offer, they are basically getting to lease to own. Musk is betting that the car will be so good that people will want to keep it.
This is tricky. Isn't the battery technology always getting improved? That should make car owners more likely to upgrade, if they decide to keep getting electric cars, IMO. The battery is arguably the most important part of the car.
Just like replacing the remote control batteries, right? Wrong, Tesla batteries cost a fortune, so while you can replace them, it will hit your wallet http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tesla_Model_S
