What belongs on a first used-EV viewing checklist?

A useful first viewing starts with vehicle identity, documents and ordinary condition. Confirm the variant, inspect the supplied records and note any repairs, warnings or gaps that need professional follow-up.

Check practical fit as well: seating, luggage, controls and supported charging. Ask what a charging demonstration can show, and remember that a brief successful session is not a complete battery test.

Keep battery evidence as its own part of the checklist. Record the method and baseline, and leave condition unknown if suitable evidence is missing. Do not post identifying documents in the community.
