STORY

The Model S launched in 2012 as Tesla's breakthrough luxury sedan. It showed that a long-range EV could be desirable and set the template for the modern electric car. During its life it introduced dual-motor 'D' all-wheel drive, Autopilot hardware and the Ludicrous-mode P100D. A major 2021 refresh brought a new interior, an optional yoke steering wheel and the tri-motor Plaid, one of the quickest production cars ever built.
