[NEWS] Used Tesla prices are tanking:
But EV Auto is turning markdowns into momentum.
Model 3 values are down 10.6% year over year.
Cybertruck? Nearly 50%.
The culprit:
Elevated inventories—and older, high-mileage Teslas flooding the market.
Still, EV Auto isn’t sweating it.
Instead, they’re leaning into $4K tax credits, clean pricing, and a deep bench of in-demand Model 3s and Ys.
The result: 60 more units sold in April vs. March.
And 12 Teslas moved in 48hrs on their 2nd lot.
Bottom line: For dealers who know how to position EVs, it’s prime time—because as CEO Alex Lawrence put it—demand is (largely) still being driven by features, colors, and price. Not by Elon’s political moves.

We are launching our EV Service business with mobile trucks in Utah (Wasatch Front, St. George and Lehi) as well as Denver, Colorado and Orange County, California.
If you know anyone send them my way!
I've been working with a team for months to build an AI voice that answers phones at EV Auto when we are too busy or are closed.
This is connected to my actual inventory and we've trained "Amy" to match our style, too.
Will you call it and let me know what you think?

Please be a "normal" customer -- ask questions about cars, prices, trade-ins, financing, ev tax credits and so on. And put any thoughts or suggestions here if you would? Thank you!
It's about 85% of the way there but is pretty darn good.
Our second location for @evautodotcom is now open in Lehi, Utah. Been a lot of hard work, sacrifice, risk and late nights to get this far.
Not slowing down; working on locations 3+ with the day one stated goal to be the largest seller of used EV’s in the world.
All-in … the boats have officially been burned at this point.
Thanks to everyone reading this for the support and encouragement. Come see us in Lehi!
We filmed something about why @evautodotcom is a fun and very different car buying experience.
Need an EV? Only ONE place in Utah that specializes in it!
