You Can No Longer Buy A Tesla Vehicle At The End Of Your Lease

Tesla'sTesla's used-car prices are soaring; thus, Tesla is no longer allowing its customers to buy the cars at the end of their leases.

Used EV prices have increased a lot, and this is due to supply-chain issues.

The EV demands have increased, but lack of inventory has raised Tesla prices, with the most significant spikes.

Furthermore, Tesla has seen a huge return of used Model 3S from lease over the past year, prime for a used-cars price spike.

The return of used vehicles & periodic price increases has made new Tesla more expensive.

The brand-new Tesla Model3 costs more than a third higher than last year.

Tesla has seen a rise in both used & new car prices, making it harder for people to get behind its wheels even with leasing.
