Tesla's used car sales hit record highs in the UK this January, with 2,442 units sold. Models 3 and Y lead this surge, despite controversies surrounding @elonmusk. From March 2024, monthly sales never dipped below 1,500 units.
Even with Tesla's market dominance, prices have fallen, aiding buyer interest. The Model 3's price dropped from £31K to £21K, while Model Y fell from £47K to £32K since mid-2023. Commentary from Marketcheck UK's Alastair Campbell suggests Tesla buyers remain unfazed by Musk's polarizing politics, choosing cars for performance, not ideology.
