From Transport Evolved.
As tariffs make EVs more expensive in the U.S. – and demand for cars continues to grow (especially EVs), we’re expecting the prices of used EVs to start going up quite dramatically, especially considering that searches for used EVs are now at an all-time high.
(And sure, used EV prices are 40% lower than they were during the early days of the pandemic, but again, we think there’s evidence to suggest that’s about to change.
So today, we’re reminding folks where the market currently is, where we think it’s going, and offering some tips and trips for both buyers and sellers of used EVs.
