Worth buying now All-time low

2019-2023 Tesla Model 3

No mainstream car has had a wilder used-price ride than the Model 3, and the volatility is exactly why a price tracker matters here. After steep new-price cuts dragged used values down hard, the 2019-2023 cars have settled into bargain territory, often costing a fraction of their original MSRP while still offering long range and free or cheap Supercharger-network access. The buying calculus is different from a gas car: the most important question is battery health and whether the example still qualifies for the used-EV tax credit, which can swing the real cost by thousands. Long Range and Performance examples hold value better than the Standard Range cars. Expect prices to keep drifting down gently as more lease returns hit the market.

How the Buy-timing Score is calculated

We combine today's price position within this product's own 12-month range, its distance from the all-time low, and the recent trend. The score reflects price timing and is the same in every market; only the displayed prices and retailers change. We never accept payment to change a score. Read the full methodology →
