Are battery-electric vehicles struggling in the German used-car market?

Author: Autovista24 September 11, 2024 Duration: 9:22

Germany is home to one of the largest used-car markets in Europe. This means the performance of battery-electric vehicles (BEVs) in this region can have a significant impact. In this Autovista24 podcast, journalist Tom Hooker investigates the market with Eurotax regional head of valuations for Germany, Austria, Switzerland, and CEE countries Robert Madas.

The German new-car market has endured a turbulent 2024 so far. This has been mainly driven by a BEV decline, particularly in August. But how is the powertrain performing in the country’s used-car market?
