What is the Tesla Model 3's resale value?

Model YearCurrent Avg. PriceYear-Over-Year Change
2018$19,744−0.65%

2020$22,467+4.82%
2022$25,388+5.06%
2023$27,661+5.93%

The table shows a mostly rising pattern across the model years with year-over-year gains in several recent entries. That suggests used prices have been moving upward for much of the lineup, with only one model year showing a slight decline. The 2018 model year is holding steady, with prices close to flat year-over-year.

The 2023, 2022, and 2020 model years have held their value best, with prices flat to rising year-over-year.

Should I buy a used Tesla Model 3 now or wait for the next model?

Buy now if:

  • Price trend: The 2018 model is at −0.65% versus a year ago.
  • Sweet-spot year: The 2022 model has the most listings at a current average price of $25,388.

If you're buying used today, the 2022 model year offers the best mix of value and availability. If you want the newest version, it may be worth waiting for 2028 inventory to mature.
