The faster depreciation of EVs compared to gas cars is largely due to rapid technological advancements making older models less desirable, coupled with market factors like subsidies and high initial prices. While EVs lose value quickly, this trend may reflect ongoing innovation rather than lack of demand, and improvements in battery technology and new models suggest the depreciation rate could stabilize over time.
