Certified Pre-Owned: the Tesla Model S

We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no Tesla Model S for sale by us right now. Before you buy the Tesla Model S, here is what the figures say and what to look at.

A buyer's checks

Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. 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.

Under the hood

No fuel-use rating is published for this model year, so we leave those figures out.

Living with the Model S

As a large sedan, it has a closed trunk that keeps luggage out of sight.

When the Model S makes sense

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.

Rent it for a week first

Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. A test week in the Model S tells you more than any review. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer.

Money matters

Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car.

Which one to look for

If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. The years table on this page shows where the Model S changed. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.

Questions first?

A rental request is free; the offer shows the full price.

Rent it for a week before you buy

A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a Tesla Model S from us first.

Buying the Tesla Model S

Does CarmaCars sell the Tesla Model S?

Not right now. CarmaCars rents cars; it sells one only now and then. Tell us what you want and we look for one, or rent one for a week first.

Can I rent a Tesla Model S before I buy one?

Yes. Request it for a week (or longer, up to 365 days) and drive it as your own; nothing is charged until we confirm and you approve.

Where do the figures come from?

Fuel use and fuel cost from the US EPA (fueleconomy.gov), dimensions and weight from NHTSA vPIC Canadian specifications, recalls and complaints from NHTSA. We leave out any figure no free source publishes.
