. In between, though, a reader contributed what might be the most interesting comment of all. Writing the comment under Steve’s article,
I discussed this topic with a local friend, and I found interesting the impact EVs are having on the automotive market overall. The availability of cheap imports from China has triggered a generalized reduction in the prices of cars in the Kingdom. But where the decrement is particularly evident, is in the value of used cars.
