    Nah, that was only really true for the first-gen stuff. Battery tech is mature at this point. A 2016 Hyundai Ioniq EV for example is worth about twice as much as a 2016 Renault Zoe EV, difference was the design on the Ioniq was much more mature and closer to modern EVs, so it has held its value really well in comparison.

    Look at the values of used Chevrolet Bolts for example, a 6-year-old one is still worth $16k even though they can be had for $26k brand-new excluding the $7500 tax credit.
