Five years ago, BEUC the European consumer association, together with its national members, already pointed out that used electric cars were, in many cases, a cost-effective option (particularly when combined with smart charging).
A medium-sized electric car bought today is already the most financially interesting solution over the car’s lifetime, research by BEUC and nine of its national member organisations reveals. We also find that electric cars are the most ‘equitable’ engine on the market: second- and third-hand owners – who bear less of the car’s depreciation and benefit from low maintenance costs – will make savings for each electric car sold today. First owners driving many kilometres can already save money today by choosing electric.

“Used car sales are going up faster because they are available immediately, unlike new cars which can have lead times of around three months,” said Jaap Burger, a clean transport
analyst.
“Drivers of cheaper, used cars are also more sensitive to price surges at the pump,” he added.
