Tesla Model S Review 2023
- 9 months ago
The conventional key fob in the shape of a car has been replaced with a new key card for the Model S this year. In addition, a standard steering wheel comes back as a free option (existing owners can optionally have a $700 retrofit). A Standard Range model with a lower price and an estimated 320-mile driving range has also been reintroduced by Tesla. Be ready for additional Model S changes in the future because Tesla is known for making changes to its vehicles throughout each model year.
We would continue to use the Long Range model, which has an estimated range of 405 miles on a single charge, despite the Standard Range trim having a more alluring beginning price. The Plaid model's ultra-high performance sounds appealing, but its six-figure starting price detracts from its value unless you are absolutely required to own a car with the acceleration of a Top Fuel dragster.
