Fuel economy and running costs
At about $650 per year in fuel (EPA estimate, 15,000 mi/yr), fuel is a major part of the cost of owning the 2024 Tesla Model Y Long Range RWD. Over five years that is roughly $3,250 at today's prices — before insurance, maintenance, and depreciation.
How to read these numbers
EPA figures come from standardized laboratory test cycles and are the same estimates shown on the vehicle's window sticker. Your real-world mileage depends on driving style, conditions, fuel grade, and maintenance. Use combined MPG and annual fuel cost to compare vehicles fairly.
