A 2022 Model 3 cost $1,400 to $3,000 more than a 2018–2020
The 2018, 2019 and 2020 Model 3 medians were $22,995, $23,277 and $24,580, with 76,699 to 81,509 miles. The median 2022 was $25,968 with 52,262 miles. For about $1,400 to $3,000 more, it had 24,000 to 29,000 fewer miles.
The newer car usually has more of its battery warranty left as well. The next section shows how to check that for a specific car.
Check how much battery warranty is left
Tesla’s current US warranty covers the battery and drive unit for 8 years. The mileage limit is 100,000 miles on the Model 3 RWD and Model Y RWD and 120,000 miles on the Premium and Performance versions, with at least 70% of battery capacity retained over the warranty period. Older cars carry the terms in the warranty supplied with them, and Tesla says that document is the authoritative one.
The model year does not tell you when the 8 years began. A car that went into service in 2018 reaches 8 years during 2026. Ask the seller for the original in-service date and the coverage Tesla shows for the VIN before you compare prices.

The used EV tax credit has ended
The federal used clean vehicle credit of up to $4,000 is not available for vehicles acquired after 30 September 2025, according to the IRS. Leave it out when you work out what a used Tesla will cost you.

Other used electric cars we found
Outside Tesla, used electric cars were spread across many models, so each had only a few listings. These had at least eight.
A median across several model years mixes battery sizes and ranges. Check the EPA range for the exact year and trim before you compare two cars.

How we counted
On 14 November 2026 we read every used and certified pre-owned listing published on Car Handshake and counted each VIN once. That gave 225 used Model 3 and Model Y cars at 27 dealerships in 17 states, and 281 other used electric vehicles at 70 dealerships. A model year needed five listings to appear in a Tesla table.
These are dealer listings. Private sales and Tesla’s own used inventory are not included, and prices change as cars sell.
