What's My Tesla Worth?

Free market value estimate based on 68,000+ tracked Tesla sales — adjusted for your battery health. Better than KBB for Teslas.

Why our Tesla valuations are different

Generic car-value tools weren't built for EVs. We were.

68,000+ tracked sales

Anchored to real Teslas sold in the last 90 days. When a config has too few sales, we say so and use current asking prices or a depreciation curve.

Battery-aware pricing

We factor in your Tesla's estimated state of health using Tesla's own range data — a $5,000+ swing on the same model/year.

Confidence indicator

Every estimate shows what it's based on — how many comparable sales, asking prices, or a depreciation curve when sales are thin — so you know how much to trust it.

Tesla Trade-In Value: Estimator & What to Expect

The estimate above doubles as a trade-in calculator: it shows your Tesla's private-sale value. Dealer and trade-in quotes usually come in lower, because the dealer needs room to recondition and resell the car. Before you accept one, compare it with this estimate — and with listing it yourself for free, at a price you choose. Dealers on TeslaTracker can also send cash offers on listed cars, and you decide whether to answer.

Tesla Resale Value & Depreciation in 2026

From our tracked-sales curves, here's roughly how much of its original price each model keeps as it ages — the same data behind every estimate on this page:

ModelAfter 1 yearAfter 3 yearsAfter 5 years
Model 380%59%45%
Model Y82%64%50%
Model S75%52%38%
Model X78%55%40%
Cybertruck80%58%43%

Model Y holds value best; Model S and X depreciate fastest — and since Tesla ended S/X production in 2026, their used market is still finding its level. Battery health moves any individual car ±10% around these curves, which is why the estimator checks yours. Watch how the whole market is moving on our live price trends.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does this valuation tool work?
We track used Teslas as they sell out of Tesla's own US inventory, and fall back to CarMax and Carvana sales (or, failing those, their current asking prices) when Tesla data for your car is thin. When you enter your model, year, trim, and mileage, we find the most similar Teslas sold in the last 90 days and compute a weighted average price (recency + mileage proximity). Then we adjust for your estimated battery state of health — a key value driver for EVs that traditional tools miss.
Why does battery health affect my Tesla's value?
Each 1% drop in battery state of health (SOH) reduces an EV's resale value by 1.2–1.6% on Model 3/Y, and up to 2% on Model S/X (according to research from Recurrent Auto and Black Book). The difference between a Tesla at 92% SOH vs 75% SOH can be $5,000+ on the same model, year, and mileage. We compute SOH from Tesla's own range estimate (when we have your VIN) or estimate it from mileage and age.
Is this more accurate than KBB or Edmunds?
For Teslas, yes — and for two reasons. (1) KBB/Edmunds use general dealer transaction data that includes few Tesla private-party sales; we use Tesla's actual used inventory, which is where most used Teslas trade. (2) Neither KBB nor Edmunds adjusts for battery health, which is the single biggest pricing variable unique to EVs.
How recent is the sold-vehicle data?
We use sales from the last 90 days. The matching algorithm weights recent sales more heavily (30-day half-life), so a Tesla sold last week influences your estimate more than one sold 80 days ago.
What if my exact trim doesn't have many sales?
Our matching cascades through four tiers: Precise (same trim + year ±1 + mileage ±15K + same FSD + same history), Similar (looser mileage, drops history), Broad (same drive class, year ±2), Very Broad (any trim, year ±2). The result shows the confidence level so you know which tier the estimate uses.
Will you actually let me list my Tesla?
Yes, and it's free. A Free listing runs 30 days with no card and no commission, and renews free in one click. Buyers whose alerts match your car are emailed when it goes live, usually right away, and it shows for buyers who include owner listings in their search. Basic ($29) and Boost ($49) are optional upgrades that add a reserved spot in those results. Use this valuation as your asking-price anchor — every used listing links a free AutoCheck history report.
How much will a dealer give me on a Tesla trade-in?
Usually less than private-party value: a dealer needs a margin to recondition and resell the car. How much less depends on the car, the dealer and the month, so get a written quote and compare it with the estimate above. Listing it yourself is free, and you can still trade it in if it doesn't sell.
Does Tesla buy back cars?
No — Tesla discontinued its resale-value guarantee years ago and has no buyback program. Your options are a trade-in quote from Tesla or another dealer, an instant-offer service, or selling it yourself. Selling privately usually nets more than a trade-in but takes more of your time. Start with the estimate above so you know your baseline before taking any offer.
