White 2023 Tesla Model Y Performance for sale in Ruby

Buying the 2023 Tesla Model Y Performance

CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2023 Tesla Model Y Performance; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. Here is the 2023 Tesla Model Y Performance for buyers: fuel use, size, recalls and a test drive that lasts a week.

Before you sign for the Model Y

Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent.

The numbers in plain words

The powertrain here is the electric motor with all-wheel drive and a 1-speed automatic. Being electric, it is quiet and quick from a stop, and it charges at home, at work or at public chargers. All-wheel drive helps when pulling away on snow; braking and steering still depend on the tires.

Rated energy use is 18.9 kWh per 100 km. On paper it goes 488 km between charges, less in winter. At our price setting, it costs about $2.84 to drive 100 km. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$700 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Is it right for your trip?

It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going.

What to expect from the Model Y

The higher seat of a compact SUV gives a good view of the road in traffic.

Rent it for a week first

A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent the Model Y for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. Drive the Model Y on your commute before you commit to it.

Choosing the right one

If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.

Running costs

Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $28.40 at our price setting.
