A Cybertruck owner shares his frustration following multiple failed attempts to sell his truck. After losing more than $20,000 in 2,800 miles, the owner says, “I want to cut my losses and move on, but I can't give this thing away.”
Tesla’s have the absolute worst resale value compared to ICE, PHEV or Hybrids. Batteries degrade over time and with increased usage, so by the time you try to sell a Tesla that’s a few years old, a lot of the advertised maximum capacity has escaped from that battery and the cost of a replacement likely exceeds the value of the entire used car.
Two of my coworkers got fantastic deals on used Tesla’s because they go for so cheap on the secondary market and California is awash in them so there’s always someone somewhere trying to get rid of theirs and usually for less that what it would normally blue book for.
