2012 S85 vs 2013 S60 - Cheapest CPO Options Currently

[JRobaina]

Hey guys, looking to maybe buy a CPO in the future, but could only afford the cheaper options on the website. Right now the options are a 2012 85 or a 2013 60 (links below). My question is: what's a better option? Are there features the 60 has that make it worth the range loss (folding mirrors etc.)? Thanks!

60

The 60kwh it looks like also has 50k less miles.

What car is the better option would depend on how many miles you drive in a typical day. It would also depend on how many road trips you plan on doing with the car.

The 60 was rated at 208 miles at 100% charge when new. It will be a few percentage below that now (the battery is 5 years old remember). Also consider that you only want to charge to 90% on a daily basis. It really is not a good idea to charge to 100% every day. If you are OK with that estimate then the car with 50k less miles is a better deal.

If those numbers give you pause then go for the 85.

That makes sense, thank you. I think as far as mileage goes, they would both suit my needs. I just wasn't sure if the 60 came with extra features that the 85 doesn't have. For example, I believe the 85 is a bit faster?
