    depreciation? did you know that EV’s have a high depreciation, so if budget is a concern, you should be looking at second hand cars instead of of new ones? look it up!

        Unfortunately that also tells you that in 4 years when you should sell it (before the 8 year powertrain and battery warranty is over), it will have depreciated a ton more.

        I suspect the depreciation rate drops off when that warranty is over, so if you’re not afraid of the battery going, just get one that’s already out of warranty anyway

      Oh my god!

      Hyundai Kona 2021 136 ps, 18900€ and insurance costs around a thousand euros, don’t even know what my electricity bill would look like, if you don’t think that’s a bit expensive then i envy your income.

      My main point will always be that the insurance is too expensive.
