      Not only that, but EVs purchase price is also frequently subsidized substantially. If you paid “50k” for a car but the government paid 25k of it, and you later sell it for 25k… You might not be that mad

    A) All cars lose a ton of value the day you drive them off the lot.

    B) The purchase price of an EV is before subsidies that don’t get passed to a used car buyer, so the drop in value isn’t as bad as it looks.
