Black 2024 Tesla Model Y Long Range for sale in Ruby

Thinking of buying the 2024 Tesla Model Y Long Range?

CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2024 Tesla Model Y Long Range for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. Before buying the 2024 Tesla Model Y Long Range, read what the figures say and how to try one first.

Before you sign for the Model Y

Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. NHTSA lists 5 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed.

The figures, translated

The electric motor with rear-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at. Being electric, it is quiet and quick from a stop, and it charges at home, at work or at public chargers. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.

Energy use is rated at 17.4 kWh/100 km, about 52 kWh for 300 km. The EPA rates its range at 515 km. Winter cold and fast highway driving cut that down. At our price setting, it costs about $2.61 to drive 100 km. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$650 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Good uses for the Model Y

It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.

Space and size

As a compact SUV, it sits higher than a sedan, which makes getting in and loading easier.

A longer test drive

Rent first, buy later: a week with the Model Y answers the big questions. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide.

Which one to look for

Compare the Long Range with the other trims of the same year before you decide. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.

What it costs to run

A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $2.61 in electricity. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $26.10 at our price setting.
