I was looking at used Evs and I keep seeing 1 or 2 yr old VW id4s with very little miles for like $25-30k. Is there a reason why they lose their value so quickly? I even saw a 2022 Pro S with 2k miles for $28k. Someone basically lost $20k driving it off the lot 😓
The Japanese government didn’t want to rely on Chinese rare earth or battery technology. The Japanese companies decided to focus on hydrogen. Former auto execs got into government and wrote regulations that supported that, and that + sunk cost fallacies is why they are where they are.
