What Will My 2014 Model S Be Worth in 2 Years?

That will of course depend on the failure rate of the crop of DU that's in that particular car and how far down in cost new batteries have come.

Hopefully Tesla will have replacements in 6 years from cells made in the GF made at scale that will bring the $22K current pack price down to less than $10K.

That's still pretty steep for an eight year old car. I am hoping my battery goes out during warranty.

What's a 3-year old Model S worth? About 48% according to the Guaranteed Resale Value calculation, less any mileage hit. Add as much as 7% if sold privately.

Call it half. This doesn't have to be hard.

A privately sold car is worth 7% more than the same car from a (non-Tesla) dealer?

Try as I might, I'm having trouble connecting the dots between a solely Tesla-centric GRV amount (versus a ~7% premium for private market sale) and that amount which any non-Tesla stealership might attempt to extort from a hapless victim for the same sort of vehicle.

You're going to have to share, or have brought enough for everybody .
