Price collapsing – Audi e-tron Forum
- jandrese 6y agoAm I missing something? Dealers always rip you off on trade ins. This isn't unique to Audis or electric vehicles. Inventories of expensive cars not selling in an economic crisis probably shouldn't be a surprise either.
- xt00 6y agoI assume this is in reference to other cars like Model S having a more solid price floor? any reference point on that from people? like bought it for say 80k, and 1 year later sold for X type stories?
- bryanlarsen 6y agoModel S three year depreciation is about 30%, Model 3 is about 10%. https://insideevs.com/features/435693/tesla-model-3-exceptional-resale-value-among-cars/ https://insideevs.com/features/435693/tesla-model-3-exceptio...
- dexterdog 6y agoThe Model 3 is just 3 years old now so the inventory of 3yo models is going to be statistically insignificant. How many people are going to buy a 40k 3yo M3 if they can actually get a brand new one for 44k?
- ideals 6y agoOther people in that thread pointed out the OP didn't state why they sold their vehicle, but it shouldn't really be a surprise that a high end Audi lost lots of value in the first year. Take a look at BMW 7 series if you want to see a cliff dive. That said, used car market has been booming during covid. Sales people commenting in r/cars have said inventories are actually really low on used cars and it's driving the prices way up right now, however that doesn't mean all makes and models will rise with the tide.
- ogre_codes 6y agoThe e-torn was purported to be the Model X “Killer”. THis is particularly damning considering it’s still eligible for the $10k subsidy the MX is no longer eligible for. I wonder if this means the pundits will finally shut up about Tesla getting crushed as soon as Big Auto gets serious about electric cars.
