Genuine question: Apart from size, what's different about the Lithium-ion batteries used in EVs compared to those in laptops, 'phones and household devices.

In our household, we're lucky if we can get five years from a laptop battery, three years from an iPhone and two years from a vacuum cleaner (take a bow Dyson for being easily the worst of the whole miserable lot, with Bosch not far behind).

Why would a car be any different/better on battery life?
