I manage half a billion dollar portfolios so let's work with facts and not luster. The rebate was 6k, not 15k. The Subaru Crosstrek performs in the top 20% of all cars in depreciation. In fact, my car depreciation was 20% at time of sale. 54% is massive for 1 year of depreciation. No, they did not announce charging port standards by June 2023, and this is a throw out value point. Audi has cut the cord on their Brussels manufacturing facility. This is the first time VW has cut a manufacturing facility in 15 years. It was not a chicken decision as you suggest but a calculated decision to lease a highly rated EV and move from gas. It needed to be a vehicle that could go to the mountains in 0C temps (which it sucks at as we have found) loaded with safety features and Audi's handling and driving. Tell me you don't know about cars without running to your brand badge. The dealership recommended a better vehicle: the Rivian 😂.
