Is this a bad deal? $8,500, 64k mi, no accidents, 2015
I’m looking to buy a car and this is pretty much the only EV I’ve considered. The issue is I don’t know much about EVs and neither do most people I know. I saw this car with pretty low miles for the price, and I’m pretty into it.
Like I said idk much about EVs, but from what I heard about this car the #1 big expensive repair is the main battery. And by the sound of it, if that happens, the car is essentially total loss for me. That being said, at miles this low, what are the risks of that happening? I’m just not sure if that’s a risk I’m willing take.
Other things to note about the history of this car:
-last owner owned for 2 years
-tires replaced in 2019
-cabin air filter replaced 2021
-front struts replaced in 2023
-engine mount replaced 2023
-transmission replaced 2024
Bonus Question: if I went to buy this car, what’s the cheapest way to get it inspected?
