Which Model Y generation should you buy?
2020 to 2021: early build
The cheapest way into a Model Y. Early cars had more build quality complaints, so condition matters even more here.
2022 to 2023: the sweet spot
More trims, steadier build quality and big price drops off new. This is where most of the value sits.
2024 and newer
The refreshed version arrived in 2025 with a quieter cabin and updated design. Expect to pay close to new.
Model Y pros and cons
What owners like
- Big cargo space for its size
- Very low running costs if you charge at home
- Heat pump from the start, which helps winter range
What owners complain about
- Firm ride, especially on bigger wheels
- Build quality varies from car to car
- Body repairs can be slow and costly
What should you check before buying a used Model Y?
- Battery: check range at 100 percent charge against the original rating, or ask for a battery health reading.
- Body: inspect panel gaps, paint, seals, and look for water in the trunk and frunk.
- Suspension: listen for clunks and creaks over bumps.
- All years: confirm which software features transfer with the car and read the full Carfax.
Those are the Model Y-specific items. The general checks for any used car are in my pre-purchase inspection checklist, and before any money moves, run a lien check.

The Model Y is the practical electric family car for Canada. Buy a 2022 or 2023 and spend your money on a car with a clean history and a healthy battery rather than the newest year.
