I have purchased 2 CPO vehicles in the last 4 years, and I have never experienced the shortage we are seeing now on Tesla's website. I recently determined to purchase a 3rd Model S and I was astonished at price discrepancies compared to just a few months ago, yet more alarming still is the scarcity within the selection. There are now 24 cars listed as of 26 June, 2019. Some have reported nearly 1000 cars available at the beginning of the year.
Whilst some have mused this as Tesla's attempt to preserve resale value, cars being diverted to their newly stated ambition of building a taxi fleet, and others believing this to be normal operating procedure, any thoughts and comments would be welcomed.
I have read EV-CPO's comments in another thread that the lack of inventory is nothing unusual for Tesla, however I would have to disagree since my experience has differed. Granted once I purchased my cars, I did not routinely monitor inventory thus I cannot attest to his claims.
If anyone else has previously seen this sort of inventory shortage please share your experience.
Regards
