Market analysis
How much does a used Tesla Model 3 strut cost?
Asking prices for a used Tesla Model 3 strut are unusually spread out: the top listing asks about 9 times what the cheapest does, so which unit you pick matters more than the median. Condition matters: grade-A units (lowest mileage, best condition) carry roughly a 5% premium over grade-B stock, with grade-A medians at $262.
Model year matters too: 2018 units carry the lowest median at $150, while 2025 tops the table at $448. Year-level pages linked in the table above break each one down by grade and variant.
Against comparable vehicles, the Tesla Model 3 sits 29% below the Mercedes S Class ($350), 162% above the Jeep Compass ($95), and 99% above the Ford Explorer ($125) for the same part. The “similar vehicles” cards below open each comparison guide.
Buying a used strut: what to check
- Buy struts in pairs. Mixing wear levels ruins handling and tire wear.
- Check for oil streaks on the strut body, the sign of a blown seal.
- Confirm sport vs base suspension. Spring rates and heights differ.
- Factor in new mounts and bearings; reusing old ones wastes the labor.
