Interest rates are higher. Americans tend to be payment buyers so sale price has to compensate.

Again, cost of EVs in some (or even many) cases are the same or lower than ICE.

Based on your premise… solved.

APYs on liquid savings are certainly lagging. Best I have is still 0.65%, which is where it’s been for… perhaps two years.

Wonder what the used market would be like if it tanked enough for resellers a la carvana, vroom etc to be truly threatened with bankruptcy.

In the interim with marked shortages depreciation will be nonexistant. Long term Taycan being the first EV from the brand, it will hold something special; at least thats the story someone with a monocle at trendy used german car dealership will retort with when asking for a discount.
