How much does the 2022 Tesla Model Y cost?

Prices are up 5.44% year-over-year — a sign of continued demand for this model year.

There are 3,353 listings available, which gives you a solid amount of inventory to compare before you buy.

Is the 2022 Tesla Model Y a good car?

Yes — the 4.82/5 user rating points to strong owner satisfaction. Drivers consistently praise its impressive performance, spacious interior, and modern technology, and many also like the smooth, quiet ride and the convenience of not needing gas. For you, that means this model fits especially well if you want a compact luxury crossover with strong acceleration, practical cargo space, and a well-equipped cabin. With 30.9% of listings marked as good or great deals, there is still some room to shop selectively.

Is the 2022 Tesla Model Y reliable?

Owners rate it 4.82/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The user feedback also points to a dependable ownership experience, with drivers highlighting the car’s trouble-free electric driving, strong performance, and the confidence that comes from not needing gas. That kind of long-term praise matters if you plan to keep the vehicle for years, because it suggests the ownership experience has been consistently positive for many drivers. For used buyers, the main risk is making sure the specific vehicle has been cared for well, since condition can matter more than mileage alone.

What should I look for when buying a used 2022 Tesla Model Y?

Accident-free inventory is solid at 83.3% — always verify the vehicle history report.

You should start with a vehicle history report so you can confirm accident history and spot any red flags before you get too far into the process. After that, prioritize a thorough inspection of the battery-related systems, charging equipment, tires, brakes, and interior controls, since those are the areas you’ll rely on most. You should also pay close attention to overall condition and how the touchscreen-based controls function, because that setup is central to daily use.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2022 Tesla Model Y?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop patiently and still find worthwhile listings.

• Deal availability: 30.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 3,353 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices are up 5.44% year-over-year.
• Clean inventory: 83.3% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $27,316, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2022 Tesla Model Y's resale value?

The current average of $29,769 sits slightly above last year's $28,233.

That price movement suggests the market has remained fairly supportive for this model year, which is a good sign if you plan to sell later. A higher current average can help preserve your equity, especially if you buy near the lower end of the range. Strong demand also tends to make well-kept examples easier to move when you decide to trade in or sell privately.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.82/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Should I buy a 2022 Tesla Model Y or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2022 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2022 if:

• 30.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is solid at 83.3% — always verify the vehicle history report.
• Price trend: Prices are up 5.44% year-over-year.
• Owners rate it 4.82/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.

The bottom line:

The 2022 is a strong choice if you want a well-equipped used Model Y with proven owner satisfaction, solid inventory, and a market that still supports demand. If your priority is getting the lowest possible entry price, a nearby year may be worth comparing, but the 2022 remains the better all-around pick if you value a balanced mix of features, satisfaction, and resale support.
