CarGurus Analysis: 2021 Tesla Model Y

Summary
With 246 currently listed for sale and an average price of $27,399, 26.8% of 2021 Tesla Model Y listings on CarGurus are rated as good or great deals.
Favorably reviewed: Owners rated the 2021 Tesla Model Y 4.91 / 5 stars.
100.0% of 2021 Tesla Model Y listings on CarGurus are accident free.
Why it stands out
The 2021 Tesla Model Y stands out as a compact luxury crossover that blends SUV practicality with Tesla’s familiar minimalist approach. It is based on the Tesla Model 3 and shares 70% to 75% of its parts, but it adds a taller body, a rear hatch, and the extra versatility that comes with that layout. For buyers who want an EV that feels roomy and modern, its coupe-like styling, generous cargo space, front trunk, and standard all-wheel drive help define its appeal.
This model year also benefits from a long list of standard equipment. The 2021 Model Y came with two electric motors, a 15-inch infotainment touchscreen that doubles as a gauge cluster, heated front and rear seats, reclining rear seats, a glass roof, four USB ports, video streaming capability, and Tesla’s Autopilot system. It also offered available features such as a tow hitch with a 3,500-pound tow rating, Full Self-Driving (Supervised) capability, and Smart Summon. For 2021, Tesla also switched to its camera-based Tesla Vision system, and the model gained optional third-row seating, a heated steering wheel, dual-pane front windows for noise reduction, and a lower-priced Standard Range RWD version with an EPA-estimated 244 miles of range.
The 2021 Tesla Model Y is appealing because it combines strong acceleration, long range, and a lot of standard features in one package. At the same time, it is not the easiest EV to live with for everyone: it lacks Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, has a firm ride, and puts almost all controls through the touchscreen. That mix of strengths and compromises makes it especially attractive to buyers who value efficiency, technology, and performance more than traditional luxury conveniences.

Amazing car! Smooth ride, very clean. Lots of room and very tech advanced. Best car I’ve own. Would prefer more miles per 80% charge but the pros make the purchase worth it.

The review summary also points to a dependable ownership experience, with owners describing the vehicle as enjoyable over time and appreciating its trouble-free feel in daily use.

Accident-free inventory is solid at 81.4% — always verify the vehicle history report.
You should prioritize a history report first, then confirm the car’s condition with a careful inspection. Pay close attention to signs of prior damage, uneven wear, and any issues that could affect the vehicle’s overall condition or long-term ownership experience. Because this model leans heavily on technology, it also makes sense to test the touchscreen, controls, and everyday usability before you commit.

If you find a listing below $24,719, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.
What is the 2021 Tesla Model Y's resale value?
The current average of $26,651 sits slightly below last year's $26,780.
That small decline suggests the market has been relatively stable rather than sharply weakening. For a future seller, that kind of price movement can be reassuring because it points to predictable demand instead of a sudden drop in value. The model’s strong owner satisfaction also helps support buyer interest when it’s time to resell.
Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.91/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.
Should I buy a 2021 Tesla Model Y or consider a different year?

Choose the 2021 if:
- 27.0% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Accident-free inventory is solid at 81.4% — always verify the vehicle history report.
- Price trend: Prices have held steady compared with last year.
- Owners rate it 4.91/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
The bottom line: The 2021 is the right pick if you want a well-liked Model Y with stable pricing, strong owner satisfaction, and a healthy pool of listings to compare.
