When you buy used, the depreciation works in your favour.
You can get a mint condition IONIQ 5 with 300bhp and 20-minute charging for less than a new Corolla.

Does it still charge as new?
Used cars still take a full fuel tank.
Yes, and it's easy to verify how much of the original capacity remains (95% typically).
The deprecation has very little to do with the cars themselves. It's mainly due to original prices being inflated during covid demand spike + chip shortage followed by releases of decent brand new EVs under £25K.
Used cars have piston ring wear that reduces their efficiency and thus milage.
Which can be repaired, even if the whole motor has to be opened.
