Prices on used vehicles of all kinds have fallen sharply in recent months, but the Tesla Model 3 has led the nosedive of used EV prices.

The potential deals on used Tesla vehicles appear to be part of the flip side of a surge in EV prices that reached a fever pitch in late 2021 and early 2022.

Kia has revealed specs and various details on the 2024 EV9 electric SUV.

Other features of note include a Level 3 assisted-driving system, and an app store th at will allow Boost mode performance.

The rest of the car’s details were revealed, too, but Hybrid-specific info is yet to come.
