The 10 most popular EVs to buy used according to a new study

  • Tesla leads the US in electric-vehicle sales, but several other brands give it a run for its money on the used market, according to a new study from car search engine iSeeCars.
  • The firm analyzed 54,000 used-EV sales to identify the ten most popular electric cars on the secondhand market.
  • Battery-powered rides from Tesla, Kia, Chevy, Nissan, BMW, Volkswagen, and Fiat all made the cut.

Tesla may dominate the US market when it comes to new electric vehicles — the brand's Model 3 sedan pretty much blows every other EV out of the water — but the electric-car maker faces stiff competition in the secondhand market, according to a new study.

Automotive search engine iSeeCars studied more than 24 million used-car transactions — among them 54,000 used-EV sales — to determine which battery-powered cars were the most popular among buyers from 2019 to 2020. It found that ten cars accounted for more than 90% of used-EV sales.

Unsurprisingly, the Tesla Model X, Model S, and Model 3 all made the cut — but the most popular car wasn't a Tesla at all. Cars from Chevrolet, Fiat, Nissan, and BMW also claimed spots in the top ten.

Below you can check out the top ten most popular used EVs, according to iSeeCars.
