Until a plethora of quality used EVs hit the secondary market, it absolutely won't dominate. Most people can never afford a new car or won't buy one new because of the instant depreciation. Currently if you're car shopping, the EV market is sparse. I should know because I was looking for a used one last year and the options sucked.
That started to happen in just the last year. Used 2022 Teslas are going for under $25k. A big one is car rental outfits like Hertz. They cycle out their cars every few years and they bought a bunch of Teslas that are now hitting the used market.
