The Hyundai Elantra average ($258) runs 19% above its median ($216), indicating a tail of high-priced listings — likely low-mileage or remanufactured units pulling the average up.
Our guide covers 10 model years for the Hyundai Elantra (2015–2025) but only 8 for the Tesla Model 3 (2018–2025), so the Hyundai Elantra data reflects a broader range of generations.
Only 36% of Tesla Model 3 grille listings include a posted price (72 of 198 observed) — the rest are "call for price," which usually signals negotiable or higher-than-average pricing.
The Hyundai Elantra grille is interchangeable across 13 model years versus just 8 for the Tesla Model 3 — that wider compatibility window means more donor vehicles in salvage yards and tends to push prices lower.
Buyer's checklist
What to check before buying a used grille
- Check all clips and mounting tabs — grilles are brittle and tabs snap easily during removal.
- Confirm the trim level matches. Many vehicles have different grille designs for base, sport, and premium trims.
- Look for chrome peeling or pitting on chrome-finish grilles — these can't be economically re-plated.
- If the grille integrates sensors (adaptive cruise, parking sensors), confirm those modules are included and functional.
