    Clickbait, uses extremely cherry picked examples.

    The cars from Blusmart were extremely heavily used, given that they were being used as taxis in some of the most crowded cities in the world. There was huge demand for them and there’s little indication that they were being sold at unreasonably low prices.

    As for Teslas? The brand has become so toxic in the past few years that it’s no surprise the resale value has dropped insanely. Owners are literally selling their vehicles to distance themselves from Elon. These are the best examples they could come up with?
