Another of the hysterical fear campaigns against EVs is that they ‘have no resale value’. As the article explains, when a new technology is being rolled out the resale will be lower at first, until prices of new vehicles are at parity with the old technology. We’re at that point now, things will normalise quickly. Also you can drive an EV a LOT longer than you would a petrol or diesel car, very little can go wrong with them, mechanically. So where you might look to trade in a petrol or diesel at sub-100,000km, or sub-300,000 km for some who like to keep their cars a long time, an EV will happily keep motoring well past those km numbers.
