Dealers are optimistic that sales of used EVs will increase along with education about battery guarantees

The used electric car market is slowly showing growth after consumers have access to better information. If previously many potential buyers were hesitant because of the battery issue, now they are starting to dare to compare units based on the warranty period and usage history.

Dealers active in this segment are changing the way they sell by highlighting battery health and annual cost of ownership reports. This transparency is considered important because EV consumers tend to want to understand technical risks before making a transaction.

In the medium term, dealers believe this segment will grow as unit stock increases and public knowledge. Neat education is considered more effective than big discounts that only provide a momentary boost.
