IntroductionElectric cars are gaining popularity and traction globally. They are eco-friendly and are going to become prominent form of cars sold in the market. If you want to purchase a used electric car, then getting a revs check in WA done is important. You will get information like encumbrance details, stolen status, written-off status, etc. from the revs check WA report. You can get the revs check WA report by providing the VIN or registration number of the car and paying a small fee. The following are the key benefits of buying used electric cars in Australia:Affordable Pricing Buying a used electric car makes sense as it is a lot cheaper than buying a new one. A new electric car-Nissan Leaf- would cost you nearly $38,000 in Australia. Compare this with the average cost of buying a new traditional car at $28,000. Thus, cost is a major hindrance in buying new electric car. Buying a used electric car will cost you even less than the average price of a new traditional car.Lower Operating CostsElectric cars operate at higher efficiency than traditional cars. They are also cheaper to run due to lower operating costs. According to estimates, the cost of electricity for charging the battery is less than one-third of buying petrol. The fuel cost of a Honda Civic VTi comes to nearly 8.15 cents per kilometer while that of an electric car- BMW i3- is only 3.3 cents per kilometer. The lower running and operating costs of electric cars brings down the overall cost of owning a car compared to the traditional cars.Eco-Friendly One of the biggest driving factors for buying electric cars is that they are eco-friendly. They are not powered by traditional fossil fuels which are harmful for the environment. Electric cars produce negligible greenhouse gas emissions and thus they are termed eco-friendly. There are different levels of emissions produced by different types of electric cars, hence, if you plan to buy them, you should be mindful of this. The interior and bodywork of some electric cars like the Nissan Leaf are partially made from recycled plastic which makes it more eco-friendly than the traditional cars.Lesser Depreciation Like most other cars, electric cars face the maximum depreciation when they are new. A new electric car can depreciate significantly during the first three years. When you buy a used car, you don’t have to worry much about depreciation as it has been already borne by the original buyer.Government Incentives Buyers of electric cars get considerable government incentives in Australia. You get tax credits and rebates in some states for buying electric cars. Electric vehicles registered in the Australian Capital Territory (ACT) are exempt from stamp duty, while those registered in Victoria get a cut of $100 per year in the stamp-duty. The infrastructure in terms of charging stations has also improved a lot in Australia due to the government’s push to incentivize buyers of electric cars. These government incentives are only likely to increase in the near future which makes buying electric cars an attractive option in Australia.
