Selecting the right car parts can be a minefield, knowing which parts are best to buy. Our guide will help you understand the different types of Tesla car parts, covering genuine, OEM and aftermarket options, along with their benefits and drawbacks.
Types of Tesla Car Parts
Genuine Parts: These parts are manufactured by Tesla, ensuring the best performance and a perfect fit for your car. They come with a warranty, guaranteeing quality and reliability.
OEM Parts: Produced by the same manufacturers that make Tesla's genuine parts, OEM parts offer similar quality but at a lower price. They are an excellent alternative if you are looking for cost-effective options without sacrificing quality.
Aftermarket Parts: Made by third-party manufacturers, these parts are often more affordable. They offer a wide range of choices and can sometimes provide enhanced performance or unique features.

When selecting which part to purchase, consider your budget, the importance of maintaining your warranty, and the specific needs of your vehicle. Genuine parts are ideal for those who prioritise quality and warranty. OEM parts are suitable for those seeking a balance between cost and quality. Aftermarket parts are best for budget-conscious buyers or those looking for specialised features.
