Buying the 2024 Tesla Model Y Long Range

We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2024 Tesla Model Y Long Range for sale by us right now. Here is what to know about the 2024 Tesla Model Y Long Range before buying one.

Recalls and complaints

NHTSA lists 5 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. Owners filed 328 complaints with NHTSA, most often about forward collision avoidance, back over prevention and electrical system; have those parts checked. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.

The figures, translated

Under the hood: the electric motor and rear-wheel drive. 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.

For every 100 km it uses about 17.4 kWh. Its rated range is 515 km on a full charge; real range drops in cold weather and at highway speeds. Driving 300 km costs roughly $7.83 at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$650 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

When the Model Y makes sense

It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town.

Room inside

Its SUV body gives a high seating position and an easy load height.

Try before you buy

Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide.

Narrowing it down

If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.

Running costs

A 1,000 km month costs roughly $26.10 at our price setting. Charging at home usually costs less than public fast charging. The EPA estimates US$650 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
