TSLA implied volatility, IV Rank & IV Percentile
Live volatility read on Tesla (TSLA) options — is the premium cheap or expensive right now?
TSLA IV Rank tells you where Tesla's implied volatility sits inside its own 1-year range (0 = at the year's low, 100 = at the year's high), and IV Percentile tells you the share of days in the past year that TSLA IV traded lower than today. Both are shown live below, alongside current IV versus historical volatility — every number is real market data with its as-of date displayed, refreshed each time this page loads.

How TSLA options trade
TSLA is famously the highest-IV mega-cap: its options routinely price double-digit percentage expected moves around earnings and delivery numbers, and its weekly contracts are among the most liquid in existence. Raw TSLA IV always “looks high” next to other large caps — which is exactly why IV Rank and IV Percentile matter here more than almost anywhere else. The question is never “is TSLA IV high?” but “is it high for TSLA?”
Tesla combines a mega-cap market value with the price behavior of a growth stock: large earnings and delivery-day gaps, heavy retail options flow, and headline sensitivity. Options writers demand more premium to underwrite those swings, which shows up as persistently elevated implied volatility relative to other mega-caps.
How to use the rank
A high IV Rank (above ~50) means TSLA options premium is expensive by its own standards — the statistical wind favors defined-risk credit structures and premium selling, and long options need the stock to beat what's already priced in. A low rank (below ~20) means volatility is on sale for TSLA: debit spreads and long premium get better odds. Around earnings, pair the rank with the expected move to see exactly how large a move the market is charging for, and watch for IV crush after the report.
Rank and percentile can disagree — a single vol spike stretches the year's range and depresses the rank afterward, while the percentile keeps counting days. Reading them together is covered in our IV Rank vs IV Percentile guide.
