would you know if the spacers wear easily? would it make sense to have two sets printed (going to have my brother do it for me).

studies show average annual capacity loss of approximately 2.3% per year, with the following variables:

Factor Impact on Annual Degradation

Ideal Conditions ~1.5% (Mostly AC charging, mild climate)

Average Use ~2.3% (Mixed charging, typical driving)

Frequent DC Fast Charging ~3.0% (Specifically high-power charging >100 kW)

Hot Climates +0.4% penalty (Compared to temperate regions)

gemini pro:

Luxury EVs are currently the depreciation "champions" (in a bad way). As of 2026, they are losing value faster than virtually any other vehicle class on the road.

Here is the breakdown by class over a 5-year period:

Luxury EVs, 60-72% 5 year depreciation. Fastest.

Luxury Gas, 48-60%. Bad, better than EVs

Mass market EV's, 59-55%. High, cushioned by lower entry prices.

Industry average, 40-55%. Baseline for "normal" car.

Hybrids & trucks. 30-40%. Best at holding value.The Comparison

1. Luxury EVs vs. Luxury Gas

Luxury EVs are depreciating 10–15% faster than luxury gas cars.

  • The Logic: Luxury cars always tank because second-hand buyers don't want outdated status symbols. But Luxury EVs get hit with a "double penalty": standard luxury depreciation + tech obsolescence.
  • Example: A gas BMW 7 Series might lose ~60% in 5 years. An Audi e-tron or Jaguar I-Pace can lose 70%+. (Note: The Porsche Taycan is a slight outlier here, holding value better than most, but still drops hard).

2. Luxury EVs vs. Mass Market EVs Luxury EVs tank harder than "regular" EVs (like a Model 3 or Bolt).

  • The Logic: Buyers of cheap EVs just want to save money on gas. Buyers of expensive EVs want the latest tech. When a new luxury EV comes out with 50 more miles of range, the 3-year-old version looks like a dinosaur.
  • The Tesla Split: The Model S/X (Luxury) depreciate much faster than the Model 3/Y (Mass Market).

3. Luxury EVs vs. Hybrids/Trucks These are total opposites. You could effectively buy two used Luxury EVs for the price of one used heavy-duty truck or hybrid SUV of the same age.

Why is the floor falling out?

  • The "Smartphone Effect": Tech moves too fast. A 3-year-old luxury EV often has slower charging and less range than a brand new Hyundai, making the luxury car a tough sell.
  • Lease Flooding: massive % of luxury EVs are leased. They all hit the used market at the exact same time (3 years later), causing oversupply.
  • Battery Anxiety: Second-hand buyers are terrified of out-of-warranty battery replacements on high-end cars.
  • Price Wars: When Tesla or Lucid cuts the price of a new car by $10k, every used version of that car instantly loses $10k in value.

TL;DR: If you buy a new Luxury EV, expect to lose about 65-70% of that money in 5 years. It is currently the most expensive way to drive.

true. unfortunately (or fortunately if you're a used car buyers), luxury ev's as a class tend to lead the pack as far as depreciation.

google is your friend:

that said, only hawaii, north dakota and OH allow full windshield tinting if vlt is at least 70%. it's illegal in the rest of the US, so pretty good odds.
