Recently, prices have eased on the 2021 models, while other recent model years have held firm or risen.

Is the Tesla Model S a good car?

Yes — the Tesla Model S is widely appealing if you want a fast, tech-forward luxury EV with strong range and a distinctive cabin experience. The all-generations owner rating is 4.53/5 across every model year in the data.

Owners consistently praise the Model S for its performance, advanced technology, and luxurious feel. Many also highlight the spacious cabin and the car’s futuristic driving experience, which helps it stand out even among newer electric sedans.

29.0% of listings are priced as good or great deals.

Are Tesla Model S models reliable?

Owners and experts consistently praise the Model S for its performance, advanced technology, and long-range capability. Across the model years in the data, the strongest feedback centers on the car’s quick acceleration, software-driven features, and premium driving experience.

  • Owners rate the Tesla Model S between 2.0 and 5.0 out of 5 stars across all model years in the data.

For used buyers, long-term ownership risk is worth weighing carefully because build quality and battery or drivetrain concerns appear in owner feedback across several years.

What should I look for when buying a used Tesla Model S?

Across all model years, accident-free inventory is solid at 81% — always verify the vehicle history report.

Model YearAccident-Free %
202697.2%
202594.8%
202485.1%
202384.1%
202283.4%

201674.8%
201578.2%
201478.9%

Older model years carry meaningfully higher accident rates, so always verify the vehicle history report on pre-2014 models.

What Tesla Model S do most buyers choose?

The Tesla Model S years with the most listings are 2022, 2021, and 2017.

Model YearTotal ListingsGood + Great Deals %
202250126.9%
202147529.3%
201743831.5%
201638128.6%
202035830.4%
202334727.1%

These higher-volume years tend to draw the most attention because they give you more inventory to compare and more chances to find a well-priced example. They also sit in the sweet spot where newer features and broader availability often overlap.

What is the Tesla Model S's resale value?

Model YearCurrent Avg. PriceYear-Over-Year Change
2021$45,737−0.97%
2015$17,067−0.84%
2014$14,976−0.26%
2017$21,421−0.14%
2023$57,497+0.57%
2019$29,090+1.17%
2022$46,932+1.18%
2018$23,630+2.26%
2016$19,315+5.16%
2020$33,741+6.42%

The table shows a mixed resale picture, with several years edging down slightly while others are moving up. For used buyers, that means you can still find some attractive pricing in years that have softened, while other model years continue to command firmer values.

The 2014, 2015, 2017, 2021, and 2023 model years are holding steady, with prices close to flat year-over-year.

The 2020, 2016, and 2018 model years have held their value best, with prices flat to rising year-over-year.

Should I buy a used Tesla Model S now or wait for the next model?

Buy now if:

  • Price trend: The 2021 model is at −0.97% versus a year ago, and the 2017 model is at −0.14%.
  • Deal availability: The 2021 model has 29.3% good and great deals, and the 2017 model has 31.5%.
  • Sweet-spot year: The 2022 model has the most listings at a current average price of $46,932.

If you're buying used today, the 2022 model year offers the best mix of value and availability. If you want the newest version, it may be worth waiting for the next model year's inventory to build up.
