Find out whether there have been multiple recalls on the vehicle since it arrived on the market.
Inspect the brakes to assess their condition. Ask the dealer about this.
The charging port is also very important. Can you plug your vehicle into a fast-charging station, for example? If so, how many kW? Is a home charging station also possible with your vehicle?
