Where are LEV46 cells sold in the US or Japan in small quantities, say 3 or 4 cells? New is preferable, but if they are not available, very good used condition (tested), including LEV40 cells would be acceptable.
A wider question is why are these cells so hard to find to allow PHEV owner the right to repair if the objective of PHEV's and EV's is to reduce environmental impact of older technologies? Why is it that if even one cell goes bad the entire PHEV (in this case a 2013 Outlander PHEV) is not only disabled, but so hard to replace the individual cell(s)?
