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.

"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.
