Sorry, but I think you have that A_ _ Backwards.internalaudit said:...I think most of these 150 mile (sustained range even during winter) BEVs will hold their value but current ones may not as the driving range increases and battery pack costs decrease with every product iteration.
The fastest depreciating component in every BEV has always been the battery, and this will likely continue to be the case, as the pack price per kWh continues to decline, year by year, far faster than the rest of the vehicles components.
Check out how cheaply you can pick up a (~42 kWh TSLA pack and drive-train) 2012-14 Toyota RAV4 EV today.
Some paid full list price for these, ~$50 k, just 4-5 years ago.
