🌍✨ Wrecked Teslas are commanding high salvage prices

Why we’re watching: Numerous automotive reporting sites and industry analysts offer metrics on new and used EV sales, but what happens to salvaged EVs after a total loss?

A Better Bid, a Florida-based auction broker that gives buyers access to salvage and clean-title vehicle auctions, has released internal data that reveals some interesting trends. 💚

The company has seen a sevenfold surge in Tesla listings since 2019, and finds that these vehicles “defy traditional salvage pricing.” The median winning price for a ruined Tesla is a healthy $10,700—nearly triple the platform-wide median of $3,850.
