Car financing: the 2024 Tesla Model 3
We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2024 Tesla Model 3 for sale by us right now. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. The 2024 Tesla Model 3 for buyers: what the numbers say, what to check, how to try it.
A buyer's checks
Owners filed 221 complaints with NHTSA, most often about unknown or other, forward collision avoidance 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. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN.
What the specs mean
The electric motor, paired with a 1-speed automatic, drives it. 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.
Rated energy use is 15.6 kWh per 100 km. Rated range: 584 km. Winter and highway speeds bring it down. For 1,000 km, budget about $23.40 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$550 a year for 15,000 miles.
Who it is for
It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car. It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while.
What the Model 3 is like
As a mid-size car, it has a closed trunk that keeps luggage out of sight. At 425 litres, the trunk fits a family's bags for a long weekend.
Try before you buy
Drive the Model 3 on your commute before you commit to it. Rent the Model 3 for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class.
Which one to look for
Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it.
Running costs
A 1,000 km month costs roughly $23.40 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$550 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
