How much does a Tesla cost in the UK?
TESLA is the world-renowned electric vehicle manufacturer, co-founded by Elon Musk, that has gained huge popularity since its inception in 2003.
The luxury eco-cars are lauded for being a part of the clean energy revolution and are the best-selling electric vehicles in the UK, but they do come at a pretty hefty price.
The company's first vehicle, the first-generation Tesla Roadster, is no longer sold, and the Tesla Cybertruck, first announced by Twitter CEO Elon Musk in 2019, is expected to become available in late 2023.
Tesla Model S
The Tesla Model S is a five-door liftback sedan and was the first electric vehicle to top the monthly sales ranking in any country in 2013.
It won Time magazine's Best 25 Inventions of the Year 2012 award, as well as the 2019 Motor Trend "Ultimate Car of the Year" and costs between £95,480 and £101,330.
Tesla Model 3
The Tesla Model 3 is a four-door fastback sedan, and is the world's top-selling electric car in history.
It can cost between £45,590 and £63,340, depending on the version.
The Model 3 ranked as the world's best selling plug-in electric car for four consecutive years, from 2018 to 2021, before it was knocked off the top spot by the Tesla Model Y.
Tesla Model X
The Tesla Model X is a mid-size crossover SUV that has passenger doors that open vertically.
Like with the Model 3, there are different versions of the Model X, meaning there is a range of prices.
Costs start at £99,930, but can go all the way up to £133,630.
Tesla Model Y
The Tesla Model Y is an all-electric family SUV that was launched in 2020.
The cheapest Model Y is currently priced at £44,990, while the most expensive is £66,590.
How much does a used Tesla cost?
Much like new Teslas, the cost of used vehicles depends on the model.
On the Tesla website, a used Model 3 comes in at just over £32,000, while a Model X costs almost £54,000.
A used 2023 Model Y, however, is the most expensive, and will set you back almost £59,000.

On the Tesla website, customers interested in the Powerwall are directed to pay a $500 (around £400) deposit, after which Tesla will reach out to help determine the right Powerwall system for them.
