Buying a used car is not always easy. Indeed, we should already find the right model that meets all our needs. But that’s not all, because you also need to find a car at a reasonable price. However, now that prices have skyrocketed due to high demand, this is quite a challenge. The latter, we will remind, is related to the increase delivery delay for new cars, even if the situation is starting to improve little by little. In any case, buying a used car is not always easy or encouraging.

More in-depth management

We are always a little afraid of being cheated in various ways. And this is even more true for electric cars, as some sellers lie about the actual state of the battery and the maximum remaining capacity. Especially since these vehicles tend to depreciate very quickly. But in the coming months, the German organizations ADAC and TÜV will introduce stricter controls for used cars. This is currently in the form of a battery health checkindividuals as well as professionals.

Even further

TÜV wants to go even further. For the amount of 149 euros, the latter conducts tests in real conditions, similar to, for example, WLTP approval. Within 1.5-2 hours, the car is tested and charged at the terminal, in order to then make an accurate report. When in France? This already exists, as Dekra offers a similar service in real life, which is obviously much more reliable.
