- The numbers: 2020 Nissan Leaf retained ~28% of MSRP at 3 years vs. ~45% for equivalent ICE — EVs depreciate 35-40% faster in years 1-3 - Root causes: battery range anxiety (fear of degraded range), technology treadmill (new models make 3-year EVs feel outdated), charging network uncertainty - Tesla exception: Model 3/Y retain ~40-45% due to brand strength, OTA updates extending functional life, and NACS charging advantage - What's improving: NACS standardization reduces charging anxiety, EU mandated battery health disclosure requirements, second-life battery value ($50-80/kWh) creates floor for depreciation
