I spent a day driving the brand new 2021 Tesla Model S Plaid, and it was incredible. This Model S Plaid cost $150,000 total after all taxes/fees & optional upgrades. It's a fantastic car with some quirky new features & insane performance. It has 390 miles of range, goes 0-60 mph in 2 seconds, has a top speed of 200 mph, with 1,000+ horsepower. It has a new interior with a 17” Cinematic Display featuring 2200x1300 resolution, ultra bright, true colors and exceptional responsiveness. A new yoke replaces the old steering wheel with no stalks, no shifting. The 2021 Model S has a clean, powerful yet invisible cabin conditioning. Tri-zone temperature controls, ventilated front seats and HEPA filtration come standard. It seats up to 5 adults and has a redesigned second row with extra legroom, headroom and a stowable armrest with integrated storage and wireless charging. Up to 10 teraflops of processing power enables in-car gaming on-par with today’s newest consoles. Wireless controller compatibility lets you game from any seat. Multi-device Bluetooth, wireless and USB-C charging for every passenger, with enough power to fast-charge your tablets and laptop. A 22-speaker, 960-watt audio system with active noise canceling offers the best listening experience at home or on the road. With front and rear trunks and fold-flat seats, Model S is a luxury car where you can fit your bike without taking the wheel off, and your luggage too. With the longest range and quickest acceleration of any electric vehicle in production, Model S Plaid is the highest performing sedan ever built. Both Long Range and Plaid powertrains, with updated battery architecture, are capable of back-to-back, consistent 1/4 mile runs. Long Range and Plaid platforms unite powertrain and battery technologies for unrivaled performance, range and efficiency. New module and pack thermal architecture allows faster charging and gives you more power and endurance in all conditions. Tri motor All-Wheel Drive platform with torque vectoring features three independent motors, each with a carbon-sleeved rotor that maintains peak power output all the way to top speed. With the lowest drag coefficient on Earth and unmatched efficiency, Model S is built for speed and range. Together with a wider body and chassis, these elements help you go down the straight or around corners quicker than ever. Responsive Performance with staggered, performance-focused wheels and tires keep the car planted and transfer even more power down to the road. Optimized Aerodynamics and attention to detail on all exterior surfaces makes Model S the most aerodynamic production car on Earth. Refined Styling: Exterior design combines an iconic look with elegant proportions. Access to 25,000+ Superchargers globally. By combining up to 405 miles of estimated range with Tesla fast charging technology, you’ll spend less time charging and even more time on the road.

If I’m not mistaken you live or are driving this car in my town. Couldn’t help but notice downtown and some other landmarks. The good ole 502 :)
Excellent Review Andy , Call Or Text Anytime, #TESLAHydroElectric

Picking one up tomorrow 👀
This video got me so pumped
What are you naming it?!
oh hey
Third
Hey Marques, didn't expect to see you here!
The famous MKBHD stops by. Good to see you.
"There will be a software update that will allow the screen to tilt."
Welcome to 2021...
Definitely nothing new for 2021….welcome to Tesla! When the model 3 came out in 2017, it didn’t have WiFi enabled yet. That came with a software update in 2018. (Tesla just allowed users to use LTE for all connectivity up to that point.) They did the same thing with the selfie camera, which still isn’t fully operational 4 years later.
No one else than tesla does this
It might be a paid unlock, like rear heated seats
Sooooo....these features are already installed, but need a software update to unlock? How unnecessary.
@@gosiak9366 tell that to ford
Still think it would make more sense to have a dedicated fixed turn signal stalk. At least you know where they are, they aren’t moving with the wheel, and it’s easier to activate than fumbling around locating a small button.
It's like a keyboard. There's a nib between the two arrows. It's fine. Either or, personally speaking of course.
@Jip Jackson absolutely, and one of the reasons why I’m not a fan of this migration to screen interfaces. It’s infecting all the manufacturers and being positioned as premium, reality is it’s not premium it’s cheaper from their perspective. A nice button that’s well made is way more premium. I would rather the more go to controls were left in place, like you say. It’s distracting to take your eye off the road. These screens are also a big glaring distraction and can cause eye fatigue when night driving and similar.
@@rare6499 Just stick to the gas cars then don't buy the electric cars. Easy.
@@GuardianTiger maybe, but the powertrain is pretty much irrelevant to the point regards the stalk. It’s removal is ‘innovation’ for innovations sake. Not because it provides a better user experience, just that it’s different. That in itself isn’t good design.
I think audis doing it best at least in the new e tron gt and etron q4 theirs the perfect ratio of buttons and screen
I saw a blue Plaid being delivered at the Indy Tesla Store, while they were also delivering my red Model 3 three weeks ago. It was distracting. 😛 We were in the charging stalls next to each other and I asked the owner if I could drool on his car while they prepped mine. He said, “Sure.” 😂😂😂 Tesla has outdone themselves once again.
I love the midnight silver paint job! If I were to ever order one it would be that exterior paintscheme but the interior I would have chosen white seats and carbon fibre just because they contrast nicely compared to the rest of the car.
White gets dirty
@@Ryan-gz6ym I heard if you get the ceramic coating on the interior the dirt is super easy to wipe off with a cloth! (Since it's hydrophobic)
it looks incredible.
The interior is absolutely stunning. The huge map on the screen is so much better than on my Model 3. The benefits of having a subtle dash.
Biggest question marks are the yoke and the fiddly indicators.
Also the car's exterior is absolutely beastly, so so good.
dont get me wrong i want this, but look at the taycan or the etron GT both, those exteriors are amazing...this is ehhh welcome to 2010
The turn signals/indicators seem rly inconvenient. I sometimes also like to drive with my hand on top of the steering wheel. So two aspects that I rly don't like. I believe there will be a solution for the steering wheel in the next months. Some manufactories will probably be able to change the shape into a circular steering wheel.
Great video - great review but also top-shelf footage. Stabilized video, smooth camera trucking, narrow depth of field, good lighting. Kudos!
Much appreciated!
This is no where near the most luxurious vehicle.
Haha! I was thinking the e x a c t same thing. Clearly hasn't seen *that* Mercedes.
Teslapromotion to the moon....🚀
videography is insane!! Thanks for sharing 🚀 Top notch content
I have the current S and the long range S on order for a September delivery. Both my wife and I will be driving it. I am concerned about the yoke for two reasons. First, I do think the u turns and 3 point turns will be annoying and I don’t think fully autonomous driving will be available for a while. 2nd is the horn. I rarely use a horn, only if another car doesn't see me and starts going into my lane. I am so used to hitting the center of the wheel, I am worried that in the short amount of time you have to react I might instinctively hit the steering wheel and not the small horn button. I do think the yoke looks great but i would really prefer the traditional round wheel. I am not sure why they don’t give the consumer the option. I know that during the testing there were some new S models with a round wheel so it works. I also would rather see the horn in the traditional location. The other items i am sure I would get used to quickly since you use them frequently. By the way I really enjoy watching your videos.
you can cover the right side of the yoke for the horn too. watch the tutorial video.
Thanks Duncan, that's great to know. I will definitely watch the video.
@@dontannenbaum4734 Yea sure thing. I think the only real leanring curve would be the turn signals when you have the wheel turned halfway. Apart from that it seems great and I think people will grow to appreciate having all the controls at their fingertips. But it's a big change and will take time for people to come around.
Thanks Andy. Nice intro to the different control strategy. Also thanks for pointing out the configurable screen. A model 3 with carbon wrapped tri-motor and a "normal" steering wheel, turn signal stalk, and shifter control on the stalk would be my choice.
Best review yet!!! Very clear and thorough explanations. Thank you Andy, and Preston for sharing with him!
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the kind words!
@@aslye 5
The videography in this video is INSANE!!! The camera angles and moves really help show the body lines and the form of the car really well. Best video review of the Plaid S so far to me.
Thanks Tim!
It looks so slick
From some angles it looks like an aston martin
Thought that too!
This car exterior has been on the road for nearly a decade....
@@mluu510 honestly it still looks slick, even after all these years
Hmmm,. I own a Model S and I have to say I love it but it’s no Aston.
Maybe if you were standing 2 miles away while looking at it
B-Roll on this vid is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
really loving the cream/walnut look would love to see it on model 3.
You should do the launches in drag strip mode it’s the fastest mode
For sure but I didn’t feel comfortable doing that with another persons car when I was just by myself. Maybe soon I’ll get to experience that!
@@aslye th-cam.com/video/IcZX2sH_1Ws/w-d-xo.html Raven vs Plaid
Not necessarily is Drag strip Mode the quickest. Numerous tests have gotten the same performance out of just regular (non-chill) settings. Just ask the Tesla Plaid Channel.
@@alexnutcasio936 he's run more than 960 races with that Raven
@@alexnutcasio936 drag strip mode gives you peak performance for the model s plaid. Other modes may be similiar but not the very best
The kids are going love them. G forced back in the seat. Thanks dad. At least they might be quiet for awhile.
😆
haha
Wow, having that entire huge screen devoted to the real-time map. A big distinguishing feature over the Model 3/Y.
no such thing as over or not
What a calm review haha. Good job Andy. Once again what a beautiful shot HD video lol
Thanks for watching!
Just found your channel and I'm a Model 3 Performance owner.. you're review probably made up my mind to become a Plaid owner in the future, but I really.. really want longer range. I'll continue to watch how the tech develops
Loving the new interior, great vid once again
Thanks Chris!
wow drag icons, I have a bunch of icons I'd love to move on my model 3 performance, Australia drives on the other side.
I love your camera angles and video quality. Very nice video
I’m not keen on the position of the horn control. Having the centre of the wheel as the switch in my Model 3 seems much easier to use.
I read somewhere that is configurable, you might check the manual.
@@rockon7848 Well, according to the US 2021 manual for the yoke…
‘To sound the horn, press and hold the horn button on the right side of the steering yoke.
NOTE:
The horn also sounds when you cover all buttons on the right side of the steering yoke with your hand.’
So no, it’s not configurable.
Whoever says that this body has aged is WRONG. IT still looks good, and is a classic.
Looks great 🔥
I was honestly worried that they were going to drastically change it. The Model S is gorgeous car and the slight changes with the plaid just made it even better.
Who says that? It's definitely not good looking to everyone, but it doesn't look aged
Agree, Model S is not trying to be fashionable, so it ages much better than the other brands.
I honestly think it is a great evolution of an already great design, but the rear lights aged tho…
That was a very well done review. Thanks.
Put an iPad in it and charge the stupid people more because it "touchscreen"
Guess what, driving with touchscreen is horseshit.
Tap this tap that tap this again oh shit tapped on the wrong one because you drove about a very very small bump tap again tap again ahhhhhhh finallly. Now you can cool down the ac more
Congratulations Chad. They hustled your hard earned DOLLA
I’ve seen videos where the Plaid runs away from a P85d S or even a Ludicrous or Performance S, amazing! I guess the Plaid Plus will be the tri-motor Roadster , wow.
Can’t wait to see what the Roadster does
Of course the Plaid runs away from the "P85d S or even a Ludicrous or Performance S", it's newer and far more powerful. Kinda of an obvious statement you made.
@@CallsignVega just made the statement cause it’s amazing to see that Tesla could make the S even faster that the older ones, something that was thought to be unimaginable a few years ago.
Do you know if the spoiler that tesla sells fits this car just like the plaid spoiler?
10:24 - It'd be funny if they had a sensor behind the yoke that would tell if you waved up or down and would signal that way.
I was thinking that same thing. Would be cool.
wrgg
So you want random signals Everytime you move your hands around or pick your nose? Stop complicating simple stuff! Just put back the damn turning stalks
Beautiful production of this video by the way
Thanks Adam!
Not come across your channel before today. Really nice format for this review 👍
Outstanding review. One of the best I have seen.
Dude, the neighborhood is as awesome as the Car......The absolute dream
Don’t worry most people don’t use the turn signals anyway lol
😆
In the USA.
Just remember there’s people who use the signals with no other cars around at 3am. You don’t always need to use em
I'm coming from a BMW. I think I'll be fine
@@anythingthatsfunny I don’t think your comment had even the slightest amount of relevency towards the topic 🤣
A very good review, you answered almost every question I had about this magnificent car.
Thanks for watching!
how will the screen tilt with an SW update? hope that info is correct. will wair for munroe or daerik to remove the screen.
Great review!
Thanks!
Such a incredible quality video 👌
Thanks for watching!
If I' remember correctly, the turn signals have kind of a two stage activation; pressing lightly activates them only while you press them and pressing them strongly toggles them like you showed.
I’m so glad that I randomly found your channel
You need a steering wheel knob . I remember those from the 1950’s. I think they would great with the yoke.
I think they're illegal except if you're disabled

@@Cars-N-Jets Hello
@@jamo8896 Oh, hi there bud😂
this car look so minimalist and stylish. interior is my favorite. tesla need to turn this car into future flying car.
Unfortunately, flying cars will likely never happen. I don’t like it either, but it’s for the better.
The yoke gives it that feel
Elon says developing a flying car is impractical and that he wouldn’t do it with tesla. He instead made the boring company to have quick easy travel via tunnels going very fast, which he feels is a lot more practical and sensible.
The turn signal buttons on the wheel are probably ok. My first car was a BMW 2002 and it had a turn signal stalk on the right side of the wheel. I got used to it but others who drove my car didn't.
Great video. Thanks for sharing. Thanks for telling us you are 6’4”. Good to know. I’m the same and ordered a Y so i think i will fit now.
Finally an Andy Slye video that's not "Tesla Hidden Costs" or "Tesla Maintenance Costs" or "Tesla Gonna Get Your Momma". Thank You!
That dark grey is awesome
Yes 🔥
Great video! What % tint is installed on the windows and back window? it doesn't look the windshield is tinted though. Thanks
How loud is are the seat ventilators? Do you hear the system when parked or while driving?
I’ve never took so many screenshots on a video! The pictures in this video are beautiful. Have a deposit for a Model S LR in replacement of my current etron S sportback
Thanks and congrats!
Love it!
Beautiful color Love it
Thanks so much for the great review! Compliments to your taste, for the color combination is lovely.
Is this Midnight Silver Metallic or Solid Black? Kind greetings from Munich, Germany. Tom
Really likening the mint colour interior
I love how “Elon says it’ll come in 2 weeks” is now a joke!
😂
Mary Barra says that GM will have 30 EV models over the next 5 years. Who do you think is going to come through?
Dude! I actually live in Brownsburg! I’m gonna check those guys out for my cars. Thank you for this
Hi
Andy Slye how are you today , you are a great driver , I love watching your videos
Ok you’ve convinced me. I’m getting two.
🚗 🚗
wr
I wish I could afford half. I can enjoy it just from videos on ytb sadly
I have on order Blue Plaid with white interior and carbon fiber accents with 19" wheels to get the extra range. Can't wait to take delivery, expecting delivery later this month.
2:04 For anyone thinking the rear light is glitching out, it’s just the frame rate of the camera being different than our eyes. Same way some screens look like they are flashing when you record them with your phone.
Quick question, are there sensitivity settings for autopilot?
Great review, and great video as always, I’m thinking of getting either a model 3 long range or model Y long range, which do you recommend?
Model Y LR is bigger, more room for cargo/passengers but more expense. Model 3 is more sportier, slightly more efficient, and cheaper. Whatever fits you and your needs!
@@aslye thanks Andy I appreciate your honest opinion, love your channel, and I wish you more continuous success and growth!!
I’ve been really happy with my Y same interior design as the 3 but more headroom and rear legroom. If you’re wanting more functionality (usable space and cargo volume) the Y is the way to. The Y also has a one piece glass roof the 3 has a dividing piece that breaks it in two sections. The Y is a little slower 0-60 if that’s important to you.
@@agentjrb thanks for the advice I appreciate it, I definitely want the Y but I do like the sporty feel of the 3. But the added space is way more appealing for sure!
After driving this new refresh, I’d say this review is one of the best. Well done!
Thanks Todd!
Yup thought that too
i've have seen better reviews
@@mluu510 really where
Just picked up my S Plaid, love it!
Great review,
Ugh my dream car!! Someday I have money for this
That yoke steering wheel is a dealbreaker. And capacitive buttons is a big safety hazzard.
man the camera shots and quality,its verry good
Thanks!
Def Leppard on the stereo, respect. Car looks dope!
A real steering wheel please. After decades of driving, I have places where I like to put my hands. That includes the top of the wheel at times. Most people change positions simply for comfort. Pay attention to what you do next time you go for a drive.
That's what Ive been saying!
These Tesla fanboys need to stop saying this is revolutionary. There is a reason why a full wheel has been the norm on road cars and another reason it should be, or make it an option at least!
I was so hopeful of getting one, but not unless they bring the real steering wheel back!
@@altr.
"These Tesla fanboys need to stop saying this is revolutionary."
Tell me about it. I bet you if you get one of these people to spend a day in traffic driving with one of these they'll be begging for a real wheel.
@@SamIAm-kz4hg exactly! Hopefully they open their eyes to how revolutionary the normal steering wheel is haha
Yeah that steering wheel alone would make me not buy one, ever. It is impossible for me to drive comfortably with that shit. There should be an option to change that to a proper one.
cant believe im saying this but under 3 secs is too insane for me!
Honestly yes it is for 99% of people
Your video quality is amazing
Thanks!
@@aslye can u share your gears?
17:34 beautiful shot. Amazing
The P85D was insane, the P90D was ludicrous, and the Plaid is... plaid!
just like in the movie spaceballs
The one thing that really bothers me is the little horn button. When you need a horn fast, that would be a serious problem. It needs to be the whole area in the center of the wheel. At least that’s my opinion.
If you hit the general area of where the horn is like you would with a normal car it’ll go off
Think of it as helping to reduce road rage incidence in the world. You can’t just slam the horn. You have to think about it for a sec. So instead of going “MOVE OUT OF MY WAY MFer!!!” you go “pardon me kind person, you are impeding my progress”
Input is error. The car should know when another car driven by a human is driving erratically, and should blow the horn itself.
They have thought about that too!
you can put your whole palm over that right side of the steering yoke and the horn will sound
Slam your hand on right area of the yoke and it will go off.
Nicely done, Guv'Na.. Spot on!!!
2:20 ... what are those bumps on the right lower part of the driver seat back rest?
This Model S plaid really puchs the boundaries
Absolutely
What an absolutely beautiful vehicle. Sheesh. But like Sheesh, not like sheeeesh. Ya know?
🔥
Probably my fave comment on this video:) Thanks Pal.
@@todamoon8832 u should drive it b4 u give up on it..I thought it was gonna be weird too. Then I drove it. Now I'm never going back round.
You had to make it fucking cringe
Where did the surge of sheeeesh coming from I dont get it ?
did they fix all the rattles and squeaks I have in my 2018?
The long range variant is no slouch either as the one I tested hit a 10.94 in the 1/4 mile. The best my Tesla P100DL ever ran was a 10.8 in the 1/4 mile.
Funny how Andy tries to justify the stupidity of the yoke....
Listen, Tesla had to solve the single biggest round steering wheel issue.......that no one has ever had🤣
Everything Elon does needs to be worshiped.
Really good review. Thanks! Would have been fun to see more yoke action in tighter spots, like a busy parking lot. I think the yoke is unsafe, but perhaps not so much on your American roads. In Europe we have a lot of roundabouts and are required to indicate out of them. Try finding those buttons while doing a heavy left-then-right-turn without hitting anyone...
Oh my God that looks sooooo nice. Beautiful exterior
Software update to make the screen tilt??? Unless there motors and a hinge built for it already, that’s impossible
Imagine if it had 4680 in the pack. It would be out of this world!
🚀
@@aslye stfu
I get most of the buttons on the yolk, but why the horn??? That seems like an odd choice. It’s not like the horn was on a stalk and it looks positioned very close to the autopilot button. Don’t get why they did that.
Also I feel like 2 physical buttons for blinkers would have been good. Placed beside each other, to the left and right. Still within reach of the thumb, just easier to feel and more intuitive.
Great video. I like what they finally turned the car into. I'll buy one.
Great video! That car is perfect!
The newly designed interior is stunning. I just don't like the new yoke steering wheel. Functions: I think it'll be annoying to turn the wheel in narrow corners like parking lot, entrance etc. I know you can use the assistant, but idc sometimes you wanna do it yourself.
Your car goes south in rainy/snowy day. Try to catch it.
And crusing, sometimes you want to put one hand on the top of the steering wheel and just relax in style. Have fun with the new one.
Also buttons. Turning signals, horrible. This ain't a Ferrari. Maybe you trigger them accidentally etc. Give me back the stocks.
Last but not least: Drive selecter. Touch, c'mon Tesla really? That stock like the Mercedes were perfect.
I hope there will be an option "classy" steering wheel with the old stocks and design. This one ain't one for me
ikr - even if I could ever afford it that yoke is too stupid. The fact that the "buttons" are capacitive is sin.
stalks*
Oh
Great video but almost didn’t want to listen to it. Concerned I wouldn’t love my Model Y as much. Just blessed to have TESLA ! So safe. So smart.
Model Y is still great!
Andy u look great in a plaid, time to upgrade?
Thx for this video, it’s made so well! I can’t wait to get mine
Ha I’m still hoping to get my Roadster next year which will be good enough for me. Thanks for watching and hope you get yours soon!
@@aslye I’ve also got a referral roadster. I’ll be honest it’s prob a couple more yrs down the road
Andy , can you send me a link to the protection film , front of my Tesla ? Here in the UK 🇬🇧 many thanks
yoke steering wheel, the "solution" to a problem that doesn't really exist
Well I mean it does solve a problem which is your able to see the instrument panel better. The turning won't even be a problem after a few days. The only thing I don't like is the placement of the horn.
@@radfree9370 that can be more cleverly achieved by mounting the instrument panel on the steering wheel column, or with HUD. And, don't complicate your life when having to make multiple wheel turns, and possibly compromise safety in emergency maneuvers
@@USUG0 I don't know, I just can't see it being that much of a problem. Sure, a round wheel is definitely better for turns, but it just doesn't seem THAT bad. But I'd have to try it for a few days to see.
China will eventually make "full steering wheel connector for your yoke steering" or something like that in the near future if this yoke is more popular
How about an assist handle for getting in
Let's be honest, the complainers will not by a $150,000 car anyway
...for sure.
Exactly
How did u get the option for the hazelnut color
Absolutely amazing video and wonderful engineering art! Wow, Tesla nailed it 😆
That car is sick! but how about a Model 3 Plaid? :P
yeah!
How about Roadster rocket thrusters? 👀
Beautiful car but I feel like they are unnecessarily trying to fix things that aren't broken with the steering wheel and gear selector design..
Shift your mindset.
I don't think Tesla is not looking to "FIX" anything.
