The Tesla Model S for buyers

CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the Tesla Model S; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. Buying the Tesla Model S is a big decision; here is the information we have.

What to check on the Model S

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

The figures, translated

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

Space and size

Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk.

Best uses

It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.

Try before you buy

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

The cost of driving it

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. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel.

Choosing the right one

If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Compare the years of the Model S: fuel use and trims change from one to the next.

Next step

Tell us the model and the dates, and we reply with an offer.

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.
