Why buy a used Tesla Model Y

The Tesla Model Y is the world's best-selling electric car. It adds a spacious SUV body on top of the Model 3’s proven electric chassis, blending impressive practicality with a long driving range. Long-range models deliver well over 300 miles on a full charge, and all versions have rapid acceleration.

Tesla Model Y FAQs

The Tesla Model Y comes in just one version – a five-door, five-seat SUV with a hatchback-style boot lid. It uses many of the same parts as the Model 3 saloon, but with a slightly more practical body. Your choice as a buyer come down to what cosmetic options you'd like, and what battery and motor setup suits you best.

The Model Y is a little over 4.7 metres long. That puts it in a similar ballpark to premium SUVs like the BMW X3 and Mercedes GLC. Compared to the Model 3 saloon, which shares many parts with the Model Y, it's around 5cm longer, 7cm wider and 18cm taller, with the latter being the most obvious change.

Tesla quotes a massive 854-litre figure for the boot, although this number is measured up to the boot lid rather than to the parcel shelf as is the industry standard. Despite this, the space is still big and square, and should be more than a match for most families.

The outright bragging rights in the Model Y range belong to the Performance model, which can dash from 0-62mph in a supercar-like 3.5 seconds.

For the best range, check out the Long Range rear-wheel-drive model. This claims more than 370 miles on a full charge, although even the basic model is advertised with more than 280 miles.

Our pick, however, is the Long Range dual-motor car. This still returns an advertised range north of 330 miles while feeling quite a bit faster than entry-level models, but without the extravagant cost of the full-fat Performance model.

The Model Y is a very safe car. Euro NCAP tested it in 2022 and awarded it a full five-star rating. Safety for adult occupants was rated at 97%, with children rated at 87%. It also scored a respectable 82% for pedestrian safety and a strong 98% for driver assist features.

Tesla has sometimes oversold the abilities of its Autopilot system, but it does mean all cars include automatic emergency braking and lane-keep assist as standard. The lack of engine under the bonnet also means the Model Y is particularly good at absorbing front-end impacts.
