Elon Musk reveals an important detail to consider if you want to buy a gasoline car

According to the executive director of Tesla, the purchase of such vehicles will not be very profitable in the coming years.

The executive director of Tesla and SpaceX, Elon Musk, he pointed this Monday that the transition to electric vehicles could cause residual values ​​of cars to gasoline or diesel “will unfold in the coming years”.

The residual value is the value that an asset has at the end of its useful life. Thus, if in the next few years a person buys a gasoline or diesel car and then decides to sell it, its price would fall rapidly as the deadline established by several countries – approximately 2030-2035 – for the use of this type of vehicle approaches. .

Instead, Tesla vehicles are currently “assets that are appreciated”, especially due to its autonomous driving ability, Musk said last year and picks up the Electrek portal.

Also the tycoon confirmed that Tesla plans over time to “substantially” increase the price of the full self-driving option, which will help to revalue its cars as an asset.
