- Potential tax credits: You can still qualify for an electric vehicle tax credit on used Teslas, which could be up to $4,000 or up to 30% of the purchase price.
- Lower prices: Used Tesla models are much lower in price compared to brand-new models, saving you thousands to tens of thousands of dollars.
- No waiting for delivery: You often have to wait for new Tesla models to be built or delivered to your local dealership. With used models, you can drive one home today.

- Free CarFax reports: We provide free CarFax reports with all our used Teslas so you can see the complete vehicle history.
How Do I Know If a Used Tesla Is in Good Condition?
The best way to find out if a used Tesla is in good condition is to do an in-person inspection of the vehicle. You should also take the vehicle for a test drive. Things to examine include:
- Interior: Verify all lights, door handles, seatbelts, locks, windows, touchscreen, and other things work correctly. Look for excessive wear and tear on seats and flooring, as well as any water damage.
- Exterior: Inspect the windshield and all windows for cracks and chips. Verify all lights work, including brake lights and the backup camera. Inspect the body and look for scratches, dents, and other blemishes.
- Tires: Check the tread depth and overall condition of the tires.
- Electronics: Verify all electronics, including key fobs, automatic lift gates, and windshield wipers, are working correctly.
- Run a health test: You can run a health test from the information screen or ask the dealership to run one while you wait for the results.
How Do You Check the Battery of a Used Tesla?
There are a few different ways you can check the battery of used Teslas in Las Vegas. The easiest is to check the health of the battery through the information center using these steps:
- Press the Tesla car icon.
- Press the Software button, usually located on the lower left side.
- Press and hold on the Model name for about three seconds until you get a pop-up.
- Enter “service” — all lowercase — for the pop-up code.
- Press the “Enable” button to enter service mode, which will show a red outline around the screen.
- Under Vehicle Info, click on “High Voltage.”
- Under “Battery Health,” click on “Health Test.”
- Hold the turn signal down while pressing and holding the brake pedal for eight seconds.
- Wait for the screen to flash, and then the battery test is running.
However, the battery test can take up to 24 hours to complete. You can ask the dealership to run the test and take screenshots of the display once it is complete.
The other way to test the battery is to go for a test drive. Make sure the A/C, heat, and radio are turned off. Look at the projected driving range at the start of your test drive. Next, drive the car on flat terrain for about 10 miles. Check the projected range, and it should now show a 10-mile reduction. This means the battery is good.

What Should I Look for When Test Driving a Used Tesla?
Some of the different things to look for when test-driving used Teslas in Las Vegas are:
- Test autopilot/full self-driving: If the model you are looking at includes this feature, test it during the test drive to verify it is functioning correctly.
- Listen for noises: When accelerating and braking, listen for any strange sounds and noises.
- Check for vibrations: Pay attention to how smoothly the car accelerates, drives, and stops. If there are any unusual vibrations, it indicates a mechanical issue.
- Wireless and USB charging: Verify these features are working inside the car.
- Steering: Verify the car drives fairly straight and does not drift or pull to the left or right, which means the alignment is off.
What Are the Most Popular Tesla Models?
The two most popular Tesla models right now are the Model Y and Model 3. These are also the two most affordable models Tesla makes. When Tesla reduced prices on its new models, it caused a ripple effect, with used model prices also decreasing.
So, either model offers a great option for an electric vehicle at a fraction of the cost of a new one. In addition, the long-range Model 3 can travel up to 333 miles between charges, and the long-range Model Y can travel up to 330 miles between charges.
