A new report from Autolist says the Tesla Model S is faring well as a used car when compared to other luxury models.

On average, the electric car sells in around 87 days, which is about 5 percent faster than competitors.

The report compared the Model S to the Audi A7, Porsche Panamera, BMW 6 Series, Mercedes-Benz CLS and Lexus LS 460.

The Model S is also doing well when it comes to actual transaction prices, exceeding listing expectations by around 5 percent, on average.

That's impressive given the uphill battle electric cars face on the used market.

Tax incentives for new models and a harsh depreciation curve due to rapidly advancing technology typically conspire against used EVs, but the Model S seems to buck that trend. 

Autolist suggests that Tesla values on the used market may have had something to do with the company briefly passing General Motors in value by market capitalization last week.
