Just 3 nationwide retailers sell as many used EVs as the next 225 dealership locations combined. EV-specialized dealers are selling vehicles in about 29 days, compared to 59 days for the average dealer, while earning roughly a 5% price premium. That shows just how much specialization matters in a market where the right inventory and expertise can make a major difference. I sat down with @MittenHawk to talk about why used EV sales remain concentrated among a small group of dealers and how the wholesale EV marketplace is evolving. @MittenHawk

Great chat with Jamie. I listened to both the CarStuff Podcast and the AutoTown podcast this morning and I recommend everyone else do the same.

Had a blast talking EV road trips, ranting about China EV threat, sleepy OEMs and CA’s new $3500 EV credit with Dana Hull and my pal @MittenHawk on his great Autotown pod direct from Detroit, MI USA. Here’s the video version… also on Apple pod + Spotify: youtu.be/qdjtgG2wOGw?is=50pE…
