The 2020, 2022, and 2024 model years have held their value best, with prices flat to rising year-over-year.

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

Buy now if:

• Sweet-spot year: The 2022 model has the most listings at a current average price of $29,769.

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 the next model year's inventory to build up.
