Things to Know Before Buying a Used Tesla

If you’ve been searching around for an affordable EV, you may have noticed that they’re considerably more expensive than gas-powered cars. Very few of us can afford a brand-spanking new EV off the showroom floor. They’re expensive due to the high prices of electronic components and their popularity.

So the next best option is to buy a used EV. However, finding one is quite tricky since companies have only recently begun manufacturing electric versions of their models. The excellent news is Tesla has been in the EV business since 2008. So you’ve got a very good chance of finding a reasonably priced used Tesla. 

In addition to checking essential elements like mileage and battery power, there are some additional factors that you need to consider. We’ve written down our insights on the subject to help you with your buying process and finding the best pre-owned Tesla.

Choosing the right model
