I am planning to get a new e-tron GT, but I’ve noticed that cars just 1-2 years old with very low mileage have a significant price drop (around 50% +). Is this just a trend in the EV market, or is there something specific about this model causing it? Any thoughts?

People worry a lot about EV battery replacement costs. I sold my Tesla 3 at 60k miles because I didn’t want to risk it. I can’t imagine how much worse it could be with a high-mileage Audi.

Audi hasn’t released an EV with the range Americans think they need. The market for used high-end EVs with only a 200-mile range is pretty small here. But it’ll be interesting to see how the resale value holds up for 2025 Taycans and e-tron GTs now that they’ve improved the range.

Love my 2022 but it was a $122k mistake. Thought I was lucky to get one at MSRP.

I understand your point. The smell of a new car is unbeatable, but a 50% drop is significant.

Bets bet is to lease. I have heard horror stories of the e-tron and taycan having electrical issues where they stay in the shop for a month

After 2 years, most EVs experience a significant price drop, likely due to battery issues in older models. For example, you can find 2021 Taycans for around £50k and 2021 Etron GTS for approximately £45k.

I saw a 2023 Etron in the US for 65k. A brand new one would cost no less than 120k.

Yes, it’s like that the same with the Porsche Taycan it’s crazy how much value they lose. People just don’t want used EVs, especially High-end luxury ones.
