Tesla Model Y 2020–2026
CarGurus points buyers to cars from late 2023 on. On a car built before 2023, make sure the suspension knuckle and front lateral link recalls were done, listen for creaks from the front and check that the heat works. On a 2026 car, listen for a knock from the front over bumps at low speed.
Generations 2
- Original 2020–2025The first Model Y: a compact SUV built on the Model 3, with dual-motor Long Range and Performance versions from the start, a seven-seat option from 2021, and rear-drive versions on and off from 2021.
- Juniper 2026The refresh developed as Juniper and sold in the US as the 2026 model from March 2025: light bars front and rear, a rear-seat screen, ventilated front seats and a quieter, softer ride. A cheaper Standard and a new Performance joined in October 2025.
