Cars owners sell quickest revealed - but an old favourite is a keeper > 자유게시판

The cars that drivers offload in the shortest amount of time after buying them have been revealed, and it's models from the world's most famous EV manufacturer that are ditched quickest.

Teslas has the shortest ownership periods of any major brand, according to a study.

Vehicle history checking service CarVertical says the average Tesla driver keeps their car for less than two and slot gacor terpercaya a half years, based on analysis of hundreds of thousands of background checks conducted on UK motors.

But while the until recently fashionable US car maker hasn't managed to translate that into long-term ownership, two old names that have fallen victim to car-making time have instilled long-term loyalty, the study reveals. 

Rover and Saab are the blasts from the past that keep owners hanging on, with the longest ownership periods, knocking luxury brands down the list.




Tesla owners typically keep their cars for the shortest amount of time before replacing them - the second year running Elon Musk's EV company has topped the charts as the fastest-ditched motor slot gacor terpercaya brand

It's the second consecutive year Tesla has topped the chart of fastest-ditched motor brand, though average ownership spells are up on last year - drivers typically sold them after 21 months in 2024, last year's annual report showed.

Short ownership reflects the recent downward spiral suffered by the US brand; Tesla shares have plunged by a third this year as orders for its expensive electric vehicles have plummeted across many major markets, linked primarily to CEO Elon Musk's political exploits as one of Donald Trump's right-hand men on his return to presidency.

While Tesla topped the charts, slot gacor terpercaya in second place for the shortest ownership is a brand at the opposite end of the price spectrum - and it's one that's loved by Britons...

CarVertical said Tesla's high turnover rate - which is double that of cars on average - is likely due to 'rapid advancements in EV technology, slot gacor terpercaya frequent model updates, and strong resale value, encouraging owners to upgrade sooner'.

However, a number of protests and attacks against Tesla dealerships around the world and a monumental decline in European sales have showcased the unrest felt towards Musk and his involvement in last year's election campaign.

The Tesla and X owner played a significant role in the 2024 United States presidential election by establishing a political action committee in support of Donald Trump for his campaign, making him the election's largest donor with over $250 million.

He joined the POTUS cabinet in February but reports have already been swirling this month that the Tesla boss will stand down from his position within weeks.

His political involvement correlates to a dramatic decline in demand slot gacor terpercaya for his cars, particularly in Europe. 

In the first three months of 2025, sales of the company's EVs plummeted 62 per cent in Germany, 41 per cent in France and 25 per cent in Norway, where nearly nine in ten new car purchases are electric.

Yet, Tesla sold 336,681 vehicles during the three-month period - far below the 386,810 recorded in the previous quarter and the 390,000 forecast by analysts.

In the UK, registrations were down just 0.2 per cent in the first quarter of 2025.

However, the CarVertical report suggests that the 26,144 customers are likely to offload their Model 3 and Model Y EVs before the end of 2027.

That's because the average UK Tesla driver reportedly only keeps their electric cars for 29 months.

Across all cars, slot gacor terpercaya the UK average ownership period is 62 months, meaning Tesla buyers keep their EVs for less than half as long as the average Briton.
