Tesla has upped the price on its facelifted Model S and Model X in Australia.
After launching the Model S Long Range at $129,990 excluding on-road costs and the Luxury Car Tax, its price has jumped by $12,000 to $141,990 before on-roads and LCT.
The Model S Plaid will now cost $186,990 excluding ORC/LCT, up $12,000 on the price announced in June 2021.


Tesla also lists drive-away prices including on-road costs and Luxury Car Tax. They’re listed at the bottom of this story.
Meanwhile, the Model X Long Range will kick off at $161,990 before ORC/LCT, up $12,000.
The Model X Plaid price remains unchanged at $174,990 excluding ORC/LCT.

The Tesla Model S and X received an update headlined by some dramatic interior changes and a new Plaid tri-motor flagship earlier in 2021.
Tesla says deliveries of the updated cars will begin in 2022.
The new, tri-motor Long Range offers 499kW of power and 580km of range on the NEDC standard, while the Plaid has 760kW/547km.
Last year’s Long Range Plus had 350kW/633Nm while the old Performance had 451kW/619Nm.

List prices exclude on-road costs and Luxury Car Tax. Drive-away prices include them.
