vOn the first Teslas we know that as they get older their charging capacity is reduced and the range also suffers. Nevertheless, the signs of fatigue are not so severe that there would be an outcry among the owners. In fact, quite a few people are still holding on to their cars, which in this particular case may also be due to the free electricity on the Tesla charger, which is guaranteed initially and for life. But there are also few complaints from the industry about capitulating batteries; early calls of Cassandra do not seem to be coming true. In this respect, nothing would stand in the way of buying a used electric car.
And yet customers are hesitant. The secondary market is tough, prices have recently come under considerable pressure, and there is a lot of attentism. In part, the manufacturers themselves are to blame, as they sometimes reduce new car prices significantly in order to stimulate the new car business, which has been sluggish, especially after the state subsidy expired. Falling prices for new cars logically push down prices for second-hand vehicles. In addition, many lease returns are now entering the market. The effect is considerable because so far the majority of electric cars are leased and very few customers buy them.
