Thinking of buying the 2023 Tesla Model Y?
CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2023 Tesla Model Y for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. This page puts the 2023 Tesla Model Y in plain words for buyers: what it uses, what to check, and how to try one first.
Recalls and complaints
A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. NHTSA has 1,185 owner complaints on file, mostly about forward collision avoidance, steering and vehicle speed control. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay.
The figures, translated
Its powertrain is the electric motor with all-wheel drive. It is fully electric: no gas at all, and you return it with the charge it had at pickup. With all-wheel drive, it pulls away more surely on slippery roads, though it does not stop any shorter.
It uses 17.7 kWh per 100 km, so 300 km takes about 53 kWh of charge. The EPA rates its range at 531 km. Winter cold and fast highway driving cut that down. Expect about $2.66 per 100 km at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$633 a year for 15,000 miles.
Room inside
Being a compact SUV, it handles luggage, strollers and sports gear well.
Good uses for the Model Y
It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while. Families, skiers and anyone with bulky luggage.
A longer test drive
Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class.
The cost of driving it
Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. The EPA estimates US$633 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $2.66 in electricity.
Choosing the right one
If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay.
