Buying one used
Estimated prices by model year in the Netherlands, from its price when new and typical EV depreciation, and the real-world range you can expect today after about 2% battery wear a year. These are estimates, not valuations: mileage, condition and battery health make a big difference.

Summary
The Seres 3 is a 5-seat SUV with front-wheel drive, sold new from 2020 to 2021, when it cost €37,995 in the Netherlands, and now only available second-hand. It accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in 8.9 seconds, slower than 81% of the electric cars on sale in the UK. Its estimated real-world range is 158 miles (255 km) in a mix of town, country and motorway driving. That puts it among the shortest-range 10% of the 471 electric cars on sale in the UK, and 234th of 242 SUVs.
It uses around 3.2 mi/kWh (196 Wh/km), less efficient than the typical EV on sale (3.5 mi/kWh). The usable battery holds 50 kWh and on a rapid charger it averages 85 kW between 10% and 80%. With one 15-minute charging stop, it can cover an estimated 157 miles (253 km) at motorway speeds.
No heat pump is listed for this version, and it does not support vehicle-to-load (V2L).
Second-hand in Netherlands, a 2020 example is estimated at €8,900–€11,600 and a 2021 one at €10,400–€12,900, based on typical EV depreciation. After typical battery wear, a 2020 car should still manage about 140 miles of real-world range. These are estimates, not valuations: check real prices before you buy.
