If you care about the money aspect, why are you ever buying a new car though? You can get a massive discount by buying a barely-used one.

Why buy a new car? Less TÜV trouble, less mechanical problems, and as stupid as it sounds: I work in an environment in which the age of the car is a factor in determining seriousness as a business partner.

But even if these were not factors: I'd rather no buy an used EV car, because I'd rather not have a vehicle that has its battery die immediately after me buying it with no manufacturer guarantee. An ICE vehicle doesn't do that after three years - I just fill up the gas tank, and off I go.
