If you want to go the Used Electric Car Route, Tesla has a deal for you.

If you can't order your Tesla Model 3 yet, how can you pick up a used Model S (or X) instead?

We checked out several used Model Ses on Tesla's website, and found several in the Northeast for around $55,000, reportedly about the going rate for today's new Model 3s with the big battery pack, Autopilot, and a few sundry options.

 From article, (At one time, Tesla referred to the cars as "certified pre-owned," as other automakers do for refurbished cars backed by extended factory warranties—the cream of the used-car crop.
Now that many Model Ses have aged to reach six years old, and some have six-figure odometer readings, the company no longer calls them "certified" but it still sells them with factory warranties, the length of which varies with the age and mileage of the car.
In an interview, the company also says it gives every car it sells a 70-point mechanical inspection to ensure that it is fully functional and road worthy.

All used cars that Tesla sells retain their eight-year, unlimited mileage factory warranty, which includes the battery.
Cars less than four years old and with less than 50,000 miles automatically get a new four-year/50,000 mile warranty.
Used Teslas older than four-years old, or with more than 50,000 miles get a new two-year extended warranty with an extension up to 100,000 miles on the car's odometer.)
