Model S end of lease

[Jverhelst]

So, I have a Model S (2018) 100D end of lease.. it has free super charging..

The ODO meter reads 155.000 km.

Has been supercharged for 98% of that mileage. Charging from 0-100% adds 84kwh to the pack. I suppose that’s around 12-13kwh degradation.
Considering the amount of supercharging, that doesn’t seem too bad.

Car is end of lease, my question is : sell it off or keep it as private car.

The only thing I’m kinda weary of is : the repair costs with Tesla are rather high and they are not build to the highest standard

On the other hand, free supercharging I’m used to it.

How does the residual value (the price you'll pay to keep the car) compare with the prices of comparable used Model S 100D's in your area?

 

[Jverhelst]

Guess around 55%

30k instead of 55k ( real value )

Are you saying you can buy your car from Tesla for $30k but sell it for $55k? Then buying it is a no-brainer.

Not from tesla.. but from the bank.. yeah.. the question is : just sell it and make a profit or keep driving it and paying the 30k…

I have no idea how a current model Y/3 drive compared to an S from 2018

You should try to drive a 3 or Y before deciding, very different from the S.
