Electric vehicle prices are dropping, so you might think that it would make more sense to buy one new. But the average price for an EV in late 2023 was $50,683 -- that's still 28% higher in cost than a gas vehicle.
However, car experts told GOBankingRates that some electric vehicles might be better to buy used rather than new, bringing the price down even more.
"Two years ago, I would have always recommended that consumers opt for a new EV over a used one," said Nigel Tunnacliffe, the co-founder and CEO of Coastline Academy, the largest driving school in the country. "This was due to a mixture of tax incentives and the high prices of used EVs, which were close enough to the new models that it did not make sense to invest in pre-owned vehicles.
"However, in just the past two months, used EV prices have dropped quite dramatically, making this a better time than ever to opt for a used car."
