Want A Used Model S? Now You Can Get One Online From Tesla

Motor Authority

Certified pre-owned programs have become a staple among luxury carmakers, but so far Tesla Motors [NSDQ:TSLA] hasn't offered one for the Model S. That changed last week, when the company added a "Buy Pre-Owned" page to the electric sedan's ordering options on its website.

After landing on the pre-owned page, buyers can filter through a selection of used cars by location, color, and model. The cars available right now include rear-wheel-drive Model S 60, 85, and P85 versions. These may have been traded in for newer all-wheel-drive 'D' models.

All of the cars listed have fairly low mileage, which perhaps isn't surprising given that the Model S has only been in production since 2012. And each pre-owned car comes with a four-year, 50,000-mile limited warranty.

The prices are fairly good, too. One listing at the time of publication was for a 2013 Model S 85 with 13,086 miles priced at $65,150. That's about $10,000 less than a new Model S 70D, which has a smaller battery pack. Granted, the new car qualifies for a $7,500 Federal tax credit and other incentives.
