New vs Used EV: Is buying a used electric vehicle worth it?

User #1 2/20/2026
I'm debating between a new entry-level EV and a 2-3 year old premium EV for roughly the same price. Looking for community input. **Option A: New MG4 Standard Range (~£27,000)** - Brand new warranty - Latest tech - 218 mile range - Basic spec **Option B: Used 2023 Tesla Model 3 (~£28,000)** - 30,000 miles - Remaining warranty - 305 mile range - Premium features **My concerns about used EVs:** - Battery degradation — how much range loss is typical after 30k miles? - Are there hidden costs? - Software updates — do older models still get them? What would you choose and why?
