It depends on your usage too, along with the exact chemistry and form factor of the lithium battery.
A lot of people report lithium batteries swelling up in their phones/tablets around 3-4 years of usage.

Phone batteries are lithium polymer pouch cells, the least durable type commonly used. Car cells with lithium ion NMC cylindrical cells are much better, and LIFEPO4 in turn is several times more durable than that.
You would be wise to insist on an EV with LIFEPO4 batteries in the sense that calendar lifetimes are more likely to be on par with traditional engines.
