Tesla Model X 90D

2016 · 158,000 km · €29,000 · Las Palmas

Our conclusion

With reservations — clear these up with the questions for the seller before moving any money:

  • minor listing inconsistencies to clarify

Before you make an offer, bear in mind:

  • the car's general warranty has already ended (our estimate), and a private seller can only be held to what the law sets
  • we don't know whether €29,000 is a good price: compare it with similar listings yourself (see the price section) before offering yours

Battery

Battery version
NCA · 85.8 kWh gross · 81.8 kWh usable
How we identified it
first registration 2016 is inside this version's window (Jun 2016 – Mar 2018); the listing's power is equivalent to 386 kW and matches
POEV Battery Estimate
77–87% of capacity — an estimate, not a measurement (9.8–10.7 years, 158,000 km; data confidence: medium)
Battery certificate
not in the listing — ask for one
Hot region
batteries age faster in the heat — the estimate allows for it

Minor inconsistencies in the listing (check, don't panic):

  • The listing URL says «2017», the ficha técnica (Spanish vehicle technical card) says 2016 — ask for the exact first-registration date (the battery warranty has expired either way: in 2024 if it is from 2016, in 2025 if from 2017)
  • The listing puts the «Legacy» extras at «+15.000 €» (+€15,000) — a sales argument, not a verifiable market value; the «de por vida» (for-life) benefits (Supercharging SC01, FSD, Premium Connectivity) must be verified by VIN BEFORE paying: Tesla has removed them on resold cars

Real range

Range
not estimated — our reference holds only unverified figures for this version

Warranties

Battery warranty
8 years / no km limit — ran until 2024
Without it
any battery fault is yours to pay — a measurement before buying is the only protection left
General warranty (Tesla)
4 years / 80,000 km (our estimate: terms in force since 8 Jul 2024) — ran until around 2020
Private seller, under Spanish law
at least for hidden defects, claim within 6 months of handover; more only if the contract says so

Recall campaigns

Battery and charging campaigns
none found; checked: NHTSA (USA)
Spanish recall register
not searched — the DGT report shows this car's pending recalls

Arguments for negotiating:

No battery certificate
−€600 … −€400
Private seller
by law answers for less than a dealer — a reason to pay less than dealer prices

What to ask the seller

  1. Can you send a photo of the technical data sheet (ficha técnica) or the certificate of conformity (COC)? I want to check the power: the ad's figure is equivalent to 386 kW, but portals often fill that in from their catalogue, and it's the figure that tells which battery the car has.
  2. Do you have a battery certificate (Aviloo, official workshop)? Can you send the link/QR of the digital certificate?
  3. Can you send a photo of the battery screen charged to 100% with the estimated km?
  4. Which service campaigns have been applied? And the maintenance invoices?

Before you pay anything:

DGT report (€8.67)
order the informe completo with the plate or VIN — keepers, ITV and mileage, pending recalls, seizures; a «reserva de dominio» blocks the transfer
VIN
ask for it before the viewing; check it matches on the car, the permiso de circulación, the ficha técnica and the DGT report, and ask a main dealer of the brand whether any campaign is pending on it
Deposit (señal)
only in writing — VIN, price and a full refund if the battery test or the DGT report is bad
Private sale
pay only the keeper named on the permiso de circulación, by transfer to their account, with a contract naming the VIN; then 30 days for the DGT transfer, with the ITP return filed first
Tesla account
on the day of the sale the seller removes the car from their account in front of you
FSD, Enhanced Autopilot, free Supercharging
may not pass to you — ask Tesla with the VIN before paying for them
