Tesla Model S Comparison
The Tesla Model S is the large electric liftback that established Tesla as a serious performance and luxury brand. It is no longer on sale as a new model in Australia, with Tesla's local range now centred on the Model 3 and Model Y. The Model S was known for long range, rapid acceleration, over-the-air software updates and a spacious cabin with a large rear hatch. Performance versions delivered supercar-level straight-line speed, while the big battery made long-distance EV travel more realistic than many early rivals. Its cabin quality and service experience drew mixed views, but its influence on the luxury EV market is undeniable.
