Used Porsche 911 Prices Drop $14,000 As Used EVs Get More Expensive

Image
Used EV prices rose sharply in the US while overall used market softened. Tesla models dominated price increases but 911 values dropped by 10 %. Higher fuel costs due to Iran war may have pushed shoppers back to EVs. For the past few years, buying a used EV has been a waiting game, with would-be buyers often waiting for prices to fall a little further. That strategy may no longer be paying off. Used electric vehicle prices are climbing rapidly while the rest of the used car market continues to drift in the opposite direction, making dream cars like the Porsche 911 more affordable. New data from iSeeCars suggests the turnaround isn’t a one-month anomaly, either. Used EV prices have now posted three straight months of year-over-year gains, moving from a 2.7 percent increase in April to 5.2 percent in May before reaching 7.4 percent in June.

Water Keeps Wrecking Discovery’s Camera, So Land Rover Is Reaching For A Drill

Image
Land Rover is recalling 15,535 Discovery models across the USA. It knows of 100 claims or field reports tied to rearview camera faults. Repairs are free, with owner letters expected by September 11. The Land Rover Discovery is the latest vehicle pulled back in the United States over a rearview camera issue, though the cause here isn’t the usual software gremlin. Land Rover points instead to an inadequate “water management system,” and while the company does have a fix ready to go, the method it has landed on is about as low-tech as recall remedies get. According to Land Rover , water may not drain away from the Discovery’s rearview camera as it should. Instead it pools around the camera and, over time, can damage it. That leaves the driver unable to see what’s behind them, making it a safety hazard on top of an annoyance. Read: Land Rover Halts Sales Of Three SUVs Over A Dab Of Gel The NHTSA’s recall ...

Kia’s Next Sportage Is Getting A Rugged Redesign

Image
The redesigned Kia Sportage has been spied undergoing testing in Europe. It sports a more upright and linear design that echoes the Seltos and Telluride. Crossover will likely be powered by new hybrid and plug-in hybrid powertrains. Spy photographers have caught the redesigned Hyundai Tucson on numerous occasions, but they’ve finally snapped the first photos of its Kia counterpart. We’re talking about the next-generation Sportage and it could debut in time for the 2028 model year. Spotted undergoing testing in Europe, the compact crossover is heavily disguised but appears to follow in the footsteps of newer models such as the Seltos and Telluride. Details are hard to make out, but it’s clear the redesigned model will have split lighting units. The mid-mounted headlights reside at the outside edges of a wide grille and a prominent horizontal bar. We can also get a glimpse of the lower intake, which features a central sensor p...

A Cadillac Escalade EV Is One Way To Lose Nearly $50,000 After Just 13K Miles

Image
A 2025 Cadillac Escalade IQ sold for nearly $47,000 less than its original MSRP. Electric SUV had covered only around 13k miles and showed no accident history. Even heavily optioned luxury EVs continue to face steep early depreciation. Luxury vehicles have never been immune to depreciation, but the latest sale of a nearly new Cadillac Escalade IQ shows just how punishing the first year of ownership can be for high-end EVs. After covering just 13,000 miles, a 2025 Escalade IQ Sport 2 changed hands for $105,000 despite carrying a window sticker of more than $152,000 when new. That’s roughly $47,000 that just went up in smoke over what amounts to barely a year’s worth of driving. Sold on Bring a Trailer on July 19, the Flare Metallic example attracted 24 bids before the hammer fell at $105,000. While that’s still a six-figure SUV, it’s approximately 31 percent below its original MSRP of $152,365. Put another way, the ori...
