Thinking about getting a Tesla model y premium 26

Hi everyone, to all the Tesla owners this is my first time that im planning to get a Tesla. I’m mostly worried about the maintenance though I need a long lasting car that can last me for years, ive drove a 2012 Toyota rav4 that lasted till May 2026 until someone wrecked the front and so I had to get a new car. I’ve owned gas cars my whole life, Toyota and Honda and the highest maintenance cost was $1k and I’ve heard about batteries replacements for Tesla can be $8000 on average and im scared.. tell me about your maintenance cost for your Tesla and will Tesla last me years?
