In Chicago, the used Model 3 market is showing higher recent transaction prices than live listing prices. The metro median ask is $24,789, but the last 30 days of sales center at $28,500. The widest year-specific gap is in 2022, where sold median reaches $29,300 against a $24,789 ask, while 2023 is the exception with a $29,357 ask versus $28,500 sold. Prices also step up sharply for newer cars, from $28,500 for 2023 to $38,995 for 2024 and $40,998 for 2025. With 126 active listings averaging 61,963 miles and 21 days on market, Chicago shoppers should use year and mileage together when deciding whether an asking price matches local closing levels.
- Closed sales are outrunning live asks: In Chicago, the median active ask for a Model 3 is $24,789, while the median sold price over the last 30 days is $28,500. There are 126 active listings versus 209 sold vehicles in that same period, and the average listing spends 21 days on market.
- 2023 is the local pricing exception: Chicago's 2023 Model 3s are the one year where the median ask, $29,357, sits above the median sold price of $28,500. The difference is $857, which makes 2023 the outlier in the local year-by-year data.
- Model-year pricing steps up quickly: Chicago sold medians run from $21,170 for 2018 to $29,300 for 2022, with 2023 at $28,500 rather than higher. The next step up is much larger, at $38,995 for 2024 and $40,998 for 2025.
- Mileage frames Chicago headline pricing: Most current Chicago asks sit between $20,869 and $29,923, with a metro median of $24,789. The average active car shows 61,963 miles, so that price band reflects regular used inventory rather than near-new stock.
Bottom line: In Chicago, recent Model 3 sales at $28,500 are outpacing the $24,789 median ask, with the biggest disconnect in 2022 cars.
