price transparency

The used EV market is booming, marked by significant depreciation, with Guazi Used Cars’ August 2025 report providing price benchmarks. EVs aged three years or less show discounts of up to 70%, with popular models available across various price brackets (under $10k to over $30k). Guazi leverages direct sourcing and offers a 200-point inspection, insurance history, secure payment, and a 100-day battery degradation guarantee, addressing transparency concerns in the used car industry and assuring buyers.

Summer 2025 sees a seismic shift in car rentals, driven by demand for autonomy and experience. Domestic rentals are projected to surge 40% YoY with international bookings jumping 60%, fueled by Millennials (70% of users) and Gen Z (70% YoY growth). Transparent pricing now covers 60% of short-term rentals (+30pp YoY), resolving historical fee disputes. Social media accelerates experiential travel, with 38% of bookings influenced by “Instagrammable” themes like dopamine road trips and glamping. Gen Z’s 230% growth in EV rentals and off-grid destination demand (+70% in tier-4 cities) signal structural industry change toward emotional engagement and trust-driven consumption.
