Tesla’s resale values are afraid because the owners are selling in the middle of a growing reaction on the involvement of Elon Musk with Doge.
The average price of an used Tesla dropped by more than 10% in March compared to the same period of last year, according to data from the used website of the Iseecars automobile list.
It was the greatest drop in any car brand in Iseecars data.
The prices of models and vehicles of the model were collapsed there 17.2% and 13.1% in annual sliding, the average price of a model 3 now just over $ 26,000.
It is despite the average price of used cars slightly slightly in March in March for the first time in two and a half years, according to the data from the Iseecars.
This is an increasing number of owners of Tesla sell their vehicles as a world protests against the CEO of Tesla Musk take momentum.
The USTRODER secondary site has experienced a record number of Tesla lists in March, according to its mother organization, COX Automotive, while Edmunds reported by Reuters suggested that Tesla’s exchanges reached a record last month.
Musk’s work reducing federal expenses under the Trump administration has transformed Tesla vehicles and exhibition halls into a target of protests and vandalism, and has alienated part of the traditionally liberal customers of the company.
Several former owners of Tesla have already declared to Business Insider that they had sold their cars in response to musks giving the federal workforce, some saying that the vandalism against Tesla vehicles played a role in pushing them.
The Tesla values used have dropped regularly in recent years because the automaker has reduced the prices of its new vehicles.
Although this is good news for buyers who wish to recover a used EV at a reduced price, it is less positive for longtime Tesla owners who seek to sell their cars.
Tesla’s investor, Ross Gerber, told Bi last year that he had trouble turning his former Tesla back because he could not get a good price for this, and the owners who decide to sell today may have to take a serious haircut.
The collapse of the values used occurs while Tesla’s new car sales are also struggling.
The company announced disappointing deliveries in the first quarter earlier this month, with sales from Europe and China while Tesla faces a “brand tornado” on Musk’s political interventions and the growing competition from EV competitors.
