Could be training for doing external repairs on the ISS. Probably a pretty good, cheap model.
NASA would do it, and the facility would cost 700 million dollars. Those guys rented a scissor-jack, and a gym's pool for a day.

I can almost smell those classic sunbaked interior and dampness scents.

Last year, Tuomas Katainen blew up his modified 2013 Tesla Model S and recorded the explosive event in a now-viral YouTube video..........after he was told it would cost him around $22,000 to replace the battery.
Earlier this year, parents spent $11,000 on a used 2014 Ford Focus Electric car for their daughter. It needed a battery, which cost $14,000 and there were none available.
So yeah, high price but believable. Part number search shows discontinued part, but some say that battery was only 9K in forums. The 9K price could have been a refurbed battery. EDIT: Est could be faked too.

Yeah, curious to see how these non-oem batteries do, because third party batteries for phones and laptops have a great track record.I disabled signatures.

There will never be a "Classic Car" ever again...
At the most 2 battery cycles. A 3rd battery replacement with the additional maintenance would deem the car trash.
35k+12K+15+...no resale value...60k trash plus disposal fee in 20-25yrs for a mediocre car2-channel: Modwright KWI-200 Integrated, Dynaudio C1-II Signatures

The "Pilot" brand must have been sold. This stuff looks cheap.
