Used valuations for pure EV's

[George Smiley]

The wear and tear aspect isn't really an issue is it, so will there really be much benefit to be hand in trying to buy used in the near future?

They are binary so either work or don't, the only areas of wear will be the tyres and brakes

Battery degradation is the big one, with Leafs it's not hard to tell if the vendor lets you attach an OBD-II dongle but that's a big if.

With Tesla there are a few other things, main one being the limit on rapid charging. Once it's hit there is nothing you can do short of replacing the battery, and again the only way to tell is with an OBD-II dongle.

There is no limit on rapid charging on ccs2 it was one chap who fked about on chademo

You state a lot of things but frankly I don't find your posts credible.

The issue is DC charging and why Chademo with a limit of 50kw is able to do more harm than supercharging continually is a mystery. Can you offer any explanation of how Chademo can cause the problem?

The whole limitation story was started by one chap that continuously abused chademo on his old model s, the ccs2 standard with new bmc means there is no harm or risk from 100% supercharging, it is now down to if you abuse that then tesla could choose to limit you (I guess thats less of a risk on the 3 where you have to pay for supercharging anyway)
