I think the used price of Tesla cars is so high because of the reliable nature of the powertrain. The prices for a used Model 3 are almost as much as new ones. BMW and Mercedes used cars drop off the cliff at 50K+ miles or so.
Perhaps having fewer things for people to touch like AC vent tabs and buttons means the car will appear much less beat up or damaged after many years of use. Maintenance history also isn't much of an issue with Tesla as it is with gasoline cars so that will likely keep the price range closer to the price of a new Tesla vs over 50% or more drop for used gas cars, especially German ones.
