    Tesla's Model S showed that America was capable of world-leading automotive design. Jonathan Crouch drives the improved version.
    Ten Second Review
    Tesla's Model S is the brand's original EV, an electric large luxury fastback with around 400 miles of range. In this improved form, it's now sleeker and more sophisticated and has almost supercar-style acceleration. In its current form, the car has been updated with a completely new interior and there's now a choice of either 'Dual Motor' or 'Plaid' AWD variants with 100kWh battery outputs. Here's what the future looks like - and it might just be cause for celebration.
    Background
    Would it be too much to call Tesla's Model S a 'game changer'? We don't think so. Back in 2012, this car launched what is now the world's best known automotive EV brand on an unsuspecting world. It shocked the established brands into getting on with the electric era. And it was a luxury executive EV benchmark that others aspired to for nearly a decade, originally engineered with a goal of creating the best car in the world. You'd think though, that after well over ten years on sale, it'd be time for a completely new design to face a flood of fresh rivals. Instead, what we got in 2023 was this heavily revised version of the original. Will that be enough for Tesla in this segment? That's what we're here to find out.

    • @Cttechexpress
      @Cttechexpress หลายเดือนก่อน

      Unfortunately they only sell in low numbers even in left-hand drive form, the separate dash, steering linkage and everything else required to make a right-hand drive version that will probably sell in the hundreds in the UK just isn't worth the cost.

  • @mrv6159

    The script is a bit odd. Wheels come standard 19” on both regular and Plaid. Ventilated seats are standard as well, not mentioned.
    As Tesla Vision is the new thing; no parking sensors, only cameras on the car.
    Regarding the lights, also already known at the time of filming, matrix headlights are equipped and have by now and then aswell, been updated to feature adaptive headlights. I could go on.
    I greatly appreciate the in depth of footage, as barely anyone seems to have reviewed the new S and X in depth. Just some of the facts are not correct.
    One more thing regarding the value; why would it drop if they bring out a right hand drive version? You can export it to anywhere in the world..

    Tesla only seem to do revised versions of all their cars.So buyers of their latest cars need to play spot the difference. Cost cutting again by Tesla rather than invent all new designs? Why buy new when you can save thousands buying a 2nd hand version that looks very similar?

    By a wide margin this new Model S is the best car available today at that price. To get better you need a 296 gtb from Ferrari or a Porsche GT3. But I am a car performance junkie. 😅🎉

      0-60 is not the only measure of a car, and do you race with other cars in a straight line on public roads with speed limits?
      Who is going to go superfast every time from one stop light to another with the back full of groceries or toddlers in child-seat, and speed limits everywhere?
      Driving dynamics, ride and handling, the feel and precision of the steering wheel, nimbleness in corners, NVH control (noise and vibration levels), interior and exterior quality are all pieces that make up a good car.

    • @Cttechexpress
      @Cttechexpress หลายเดือนก่อน

      @harmony3138 the Model S Plaid did the Nurburgring faster than a C8 Corvette, so there's no lack of driving dynamics. The ride quality and comfort are also excellent... meanwhile the technology in a Tesla makes the Porsche look like a smartphone competing with a flip phone. How's the Porsche app? Can the Porsche pull itself out of the garage? Drive itself to your destination? Not to mention how much smaller the Porsch is, in all dimensions in order to achieve those sporty driving dynamics you're never going to use on a public roadway, while still getting 30% less range and slower acceleration.

    20 seconds in to this video the review loses all credibility. Stated “almost supercar like acceleration.”
    Almost? It does 1.99 sec 0-60!
    How many supercars to that or less? So it’s not almost it’s beyond supercar acceleration.

      We all do. So unpractical to drive with less than 700 hp really. I love my new 2024 Model S. I wouldn’t have anything else as a daily driver. Not a Bentley Speed, not an M5 and not an RS6 or AMG, they remind me of propeller planes vs the Model S turbine engines. I would however have a Ferrari 296 gtb and a GT3 RS for the weekend and the track. These are the best 3 cars driving today in my view.

      Way too slow the Mustang unfortunately Who cares if people like propeller planes if they get instantly passed by this fighter jet. 😂 i want speed and control. This Tesla is the king of the road. But you must drive it to understand. I would have said the same as i loved my LS7 v8 engine in my zo6 corvette ,,,, until i made the mistake to try this Model S Plaid fighter jet and had to buy one.
