No car retains its value well, but for a long time the Model 3 retained more of its value than any other mainstream car. That's eroding now because prices are lower and the subsidy is back.
You can't have it both ways. Either we want cheaper cars or we want them to keep their value longer.
For one, I'm happy prices are down, it will help with adoption. It's ok that my car is worth less. I don't plan on getting rid of it.
