KevinBolden Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 Hello, I recently moved to the States, and I’ve been wondering which second-hand EV I should buy as my first electric car, primarily in the US. After browsing some forums I figured there are lots of factors that need to be taken into consideration, so I collected a couple of questions to any of you who is more experienced than me in the topic. I would be grateful for any kind of assistance about what I need to pay attention to first, and maybe some more specific info regarding: • Power consumption • Recharge times • The quality and reliability of the built-in navigational system • How precisely can the system anticipate the range I can cover with the actual battery state? • In general, how long is the battery’s lifespan? Does it degrade fast over time? I’m wondering how much I can trust a few years old model compared to a brand new one. • What are the options to repair these? Which manufacturers have the best options in this concern? Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
