Tesla car buyers paid an average of $53,680 for new models in December 2025, according to new data from Kelley Blue Book.
The average December price for new Tesla cars was down 1.2% from November’s average of $54,31, according to the group. The number was also down 2.9% from Tesla’s December 2024 average sales price of $55,264.
Tesla’s December sales prices were lowered with the help of an average incentive of each transaction over $10,000, Kelley Blue Book said. The company’s prices have also been affected by the loss of popular $7,500 federal tax credit for plug-models that expired in September.
