What's happening with pricing on new and used EVs and hybrids? Great conversation with Kevin Roberts at CarGurus on finding in its latest report, along with data from Cars Commerce and J.D. Power #EVs #hybrids #autos

Prices for used cars shifted into reverse this year, and the price gap between used and new cars has never been larger, writes Dalvin Brown. Buyers could save a record $20,000, on average, by choosing used over new, according to Edmunds's analysis of third-quarter sales. The gap was closer to $15,000 a few years ago. That doesn’t mean used cars are any cheaper to own. Insurance, maintenance and repairs have all grown more expensive. “Today’s drivers are being hit with a trifecta of rising costs—car values, insurance rates and still-high interest rates,” said Kevin Roberts, director of economic intelligence at CarGurus. “This translates to a monthly payment calculation that demands a lower price for many of today’s shoppers.” With Apple CarPlay, advanced safety systems and other amenities found in cars dating back eight or 10 years, there isn’t as big a feature gap as there was in the past when buying used. And it helps that vehicles now often last well beyond 200,000 miles. “You used to never want to buy a used car with anything approaching 100,000 miles,” said Karl Brauer, an analyst at iSeeCars, a car-buying marketplace. “Now you can buy a 120,000-mile Toyota that is barely over halfway through its easily estimated lifespan.” Read more: https://lnkd.in/eJe8uiiT
