EV depreciation fears are overblown. The real gap is just 2.6%, not 12.9%, once subsidies, taxes & falling new EV prices are adjusted for. As used #EV demand grows & running costs stay low, ICE faces rising pressure. The narrative is about to flip, and disruption is moving into the used-car market.
