How much does the 2023 Tesla Model Y cost?

Prices are up 4.99% year-over-year — a sign of continued demand for this model year.

There are 3,160 listings available, which gives you a meaningful pool to compare prices and equipment.

Is the 2023 Tesla Model Y a good car?

Yes — owners rate it 4.78/5, which points to strong overall satisfaction. The review summary highlights performance, technology, and comfort as the most common positives, and it also calls out fast acceleration, easy charging, and a spacious interior. For you, that makes the 2023 Model Y a compelling fit if you want a well-equipped EV crossover with strong utility and everyday usability. With 29.9% of listings marked as good or great deals, there is still some room to shop selectively.

Is the 2023 Tesla Model Y reliable?

Owners rate it 4.78/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The review summary also points to a vehicle that owners find reliable, dependable, and trouble-free in the sense that they value its easy charging and strong day-to-day usability over the long haul. For used buyers, that suggests the bigger ownership risk is less about basic satisfaction and more about making sure the specific car you choose has been maintained well and matches the condition you expect.

What should I look for when buying a used 2023 Tesla Model Y?

Accident-free inventory is solid at 84.7% — always verify the vehicle history report.

You should start with the history report so you can confirm the car’s background before you get too far into the deal. After that, prioritize a thorough inspection of the battery-related systems, charging behavior, tires, brakes, and interior condition, since those are the areas that matter most in a used EV. It also helps to focus on how well the touchscreen-based controls, seats, and cabin features work in person, because the Model Y’s usability depends heavily on its condition and software experience.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2023 Tesla Model Y?

Act selectively, because this is still a seller’s market and the best listings can move quickly.

• Deal availability: 29.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 3,160 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices are up 4.99% year-over-year.
• Clean inventory: 84.7% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $30,551, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2023 Tesla Model Y's resale value?

The current average of $32,764 sits slightly above last year's $31,206.

That upward move suggests the market is still willing to pay for this model year, especially when the car is well equipped and in clean condition. For you as a future seller, that kind of price strength can help support a healthier resale outcome if you keep mileage, condition, and history in good shape. Strong demand in the used market also tends to make well-priced examples easier to move when it is your turn to sell.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.78/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Should I buy a 2023 Tesla Model Y or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2023 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2023 if:

• 29.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is solid at 84.7% — always verify the vehicle history report.
• Price trend: Prices are up 4.99% year-over-year.
• Owners rate it 4.78/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.

The bottom line: If you want the strongest mix of owner satisfaction, current market support, and updated features, the 2023 is the primary year to target. If your priority is stretching your budget, a nearby year may be worth a look, but you should expect to trade some of the 2023’s market momentum and feature updates for a lower asking price.
