ICE cars all have a finite shelf life. Not because it can't run, but because things become too cost-prohibitive to contain keeping the old dog alive. In certain areas, rust can also kill the body or vital piping before the engine
EVs do not have some of the major failure points that ICEs have. There is no exhaust system or related emissions equipment. No complex engine that can die via simple neglect of oil, overheating, etc.
I think software bricking is on the table, but it would probably be some form of "no more updates" rather than complete bricking.
