In the field of new energy vehicles, Tesla Model Y is undoubtedly one of the most popular models. Recently, spy photos of the new Model Y have been released one after another, but from the information currently known, its innovative performance and performance improvement are slightly insufficient. In contrast, the second-hand Model Y is more worthy of attention due to its generational difference and high cost-effectiveness. Many people have begun to "pick up bargains" on Guazi.com and become Model Y owners first.
Save money without losing the good experience, you can buy the old Model Y with confidence
Some consumers don't try to buy used cars, partly because they are worried about the vehicle performance and driving experience, along with the price discount.
But there is no need to worry about the Model Y. According to official data, several classic Tesla models have not undergone a complete upgrade so far. They are more reflected in the fine-tuning of hardware and "soft upgrades" of vehicles through OTA (over-the-air download technology) to keep the driving experience consistent for each generation of vehicles.
Although the differences between the models of each year are not big, there are obvious differences in the configurations of the three versions of Model Y. Among them, although the rear-wheel drive version is only equipped with a single motor, its power and endurance performance can meet the travel needs of most urban users. The long-range all-wheel drive version is equipped with front and rear dual motors, and the battery capacity is greatly improved, with a range of more than 100 kilometers more than the rear-wheel drive version; the Performance high-performance version is further improved in power, accelerating from 0 to 100 kilometers in just 3.7 seconds, with a maximum speed of 250km/h, and you can get the pleasure of flying close to the ground with just one foot on the accelerator.
Guazi Used Cars has compiled the features of the three versions of Model Y for reference. When purchasing, you can choose the model according to your actual usage scenarios and find the option with excellent cost-effectiveness.

The second-hand Model Y has a value retention rate comparable to luxury cars, becoming the king of value retention in the mass-market car field
The value retention rate of Model Y is generally high. Compared with other second-hand new energy vehicles, the price of second-hand Model Y is in the first tier, and can even be comparable to the value retention rate of luxury cars.
In the new energy value retention list released by Guazi.com, Tesla Model Y ranked third, second only to Porsche Cayenne New Energy and Panamera New Energy. However, these two Porsche luxury cars have limited reference value for ordinary consumers, and Model Y can be said to be the "king of value retention rate" in the field of mass-market cars.
Although the Model Y is more expensive than other brands of used cars, users can make a comprehensive price comparison through the massive number of cars on the Guazi platform, and they don’t have to worry about paying too much. Moreover, with the high value retention rate, a used Model Y can still be sold at a good price even if it is resold after being driven for a few years.

As we all know, the price of a used car is closely related to the age and mileage of the vehicle. According to the calculation of Guazi used car big data, the correlation coefficient between the discount of Model Y on the Guazi platform and the age of the vehicle is about 0.81, while the correlation coefficient with the mileage is 0.68. This shows that the age of the vehicle has a greater weight in pricing.

However, the battery life of new energy vehicles is related to the number of cycles. The increase in mileage will cause battery loss, which in turn affects the condition of the vehicle.
Therefore, when choosing a used Model Y, it is recommended to pay more attention to those models that are slightly older but have lower mileage, which often have better prices.
Currently, the number of cars available for selection in traditional second-hand car channels is limited, but on the Guazi second-hand car platform, users can carefully compare hundreds or thousands of similar cars, and then combine them with personal usage scenarios, so that good cars that save money and worry are readily available.
Pursuing comprehensive cost-effectiveness, we recommend the Model Y 2021 long-range all-wheel drive version
For new energy used cars, three years is a relatively suitable time to buy, when the price of the car tends to be stable, but the battery remains in good condition and the performance is still excellent. According to Guazi used car big data, the transaction rate of cars within three years is as high as 75%.
The earliest batch of Model Y models in China are currently about 3 years old. Among them, the 2021 modified long-range all-wheel drive version is priced at 181,000 yuan, which is the biggest price advantage compared to the new car, nearly half the price. However, considering the higher-level power performance and endurance, the 2021 long-range all-wheel drive version becomes a more cost-effective choice, which is 45% cheaper than the new car, and the price is only 191,900 yuan.

The Model Y rear-wheel drive version is the most practical choice. Guazi has sufficient supply and lower prices.
For many users, the all-wheel drive version of Model Y has comprehensive performance, but the low-priced rear-wheel drive version is more suitable for mass consumers. According to the big data of Guazi used cars, nearly 80% of the used Model Ys on sale are rear-wheel drive versions. Among them, the 2021 standard range rear-wheel drive version is about 3 years old and has a full discount. The average selling price on the Guazi platform is only 176,800 yuan, which is the most cost-effective option.
Guazi.com uses big data to calculate the average price, average age and mileage of the Model Y rear-wheel drive version over the years, providing users with a more complete dimensional reference. It is worth mentioning that the calculated prices in the table are all average prices. Thanks to the rich source of cars on the Guazi platform, users can also get more choices through large-scale price comparison when they have clear car conditions.

Buying a Model Y in the south and driving it in the north can save at least 5,000 yuan
The climate in the north makes pure electric new energy vehicles less popular, and even the popular Tesla cannot escape this "curse". According to the big data of Guazi used cars, the supply of Model Y in the south on the Guazi platform is more than twice that of the north, so the price is more advantageous than that in the north, and the average price can be more than 5,000 yuan cheaper.
Based on Guazi Used Cars' e-commerce car purchasing model, northern friends do not have to go to the southern market to buy cars. They can directly purchase cars from the south online, get the experience of "comparing prices from three stores", and firmly grasp the benefits.

Compare prices before test driving: Used Model Y is a good deal
It is true that buying a used car is more economical than a new car, but how much can you save to be considered a "good" price? As a non-standard product, the "savings" of a used car is not a fixed value, but rather the best price in the market while ensuring the condition of the car.

Due to the difference in working principles, the physical loss of the motor and electronic control system of new energy vehicles is much lower than that of traditional fuel vehicles, and the durability is better. However, it is not easy for ordinary consumers to fully understand the battery status.
According to Guazi.com's data from the second quarter of 2023, professional appraisers can identify about 83% of vehicle condition problems through static testing, and an additional 17% of problems are discovered by users during dynamic test drives after picking up the car. In order to ensure the comprehensiveness and accuracy of car purchase decisions, Guazi.com provides dual test drive guarantees. Users can test drive on-site and make a preliminary assessment of the vehicle; after picking up the car, Guazi.com also launched an in-depth test drive of "try it for 3 days before buying it", allowing users to experience the comprehensive performance of the vehicle more accurately.
In the past, finding a second-hand Model Y that was both economical and reliable depended on connections and luck. Today, Guazi.com, with its vast supply of vehicles, provides users with a vast number of price comparison opportunities, allowing each user to find the lowest price in the market based on their own needs, easily achieving the dual goals of saving money and worry.
