- Deal availability: The 2021 model has 29.5% good and great deals.
- Sweet-spot year: The 2022 model has the most listings at a current average price of $47,048.

Jeff B
Reviewed a 2019 Tesla Performance AWD with Ludicrous Mode on Feb 7, 2025
By far the best vehicle I have ever owned, but what makes it special is that it gets better overtime with (free) software updates that improve or add new features. Tons of room, and fits all 3 car seats across the back row. I mostly let it drive me around but it's a great feeling to know that when I'm in the mood to get sucked into my seat, I just have to floor it and hold on. I've never let up without a huge grin on my face. My monthly gas budget was $250, and my utility bill increased by around $50, so it saves me $200 a month.

This was a great value. I had never driven a Tesla before and this experience was beyond rewarding. So easy to learn and such a comfortable, low maintenance yet sexy and sophisticated ride. Loved the extra space for shopping, and extreme comfort for passengers. Would rent over and over again above any other cars. Price was just as equally efficient compared to lower brands. I highly recommend.

Why it stands out
The 2021 Tesla Model S stands out as the year of Tesla’s biggest update yet, the “Palladium” refresh. It brought minor exterior design changes, an all-new interior with a yoke steering wheel, and an overhauled powertrain with a new battery pack and motors that increased efficiency, range, and power. That combination keeps the Model S feeling distinctive even among luxury EVs: it is still defined by advanced technology, strong performance, and the kind of acceleration that has long been part of its appeal.
For 2021, the Model S was offered as the Long Range and Plaid. The Long Range used dual electric motors and all-wheel drive, while the Plaid added three electric motors and standard AWD, with 1,020 horsepower. Range was listed at 405 miles for the Long Range and 348 miles for the Plaid. Standard equipment was also generous, including vegan leatherette seats, heated front and rear seats, ventilated front seats, adaptive air suspension, a glass roof, wireless phone charging, a premium 22-speaker, 560-watt audio system, adaptive cruise control, and a blind spot monitor.
There are a few tradeoffs to keep in mind. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto were not available at all, and some buyers remain unsure about the yoke steering wheel design. Even so, the 2021 Model S is appealing for shoppers who want a luxury electric sedan with standout acceleration, a high-tech cabin, and a long list of standard features.
