If you want spectacular looksawesome performancecool techa truly unique automobile

Let me begin this EVU mini-course on the many benefits of the Tesla Model S by apologizing for the unabashedly salesy feel of this discussion. Im a Tesla Model S owner (thats my car on the screen), and the tesla Model S is the best car Ive ever owned going away. So if I sound a enthusiastic about this car, its because the Model S is a car that deserves that level of enthusiasm.If you want>> spectacular looks>> awesome performance>> cool tech, and >> a truly unique automobileits well worth considering a Model S

The Model S Lookstylishelegantaggressive

>> The Model S combines the stylish feel of a premium automobile, with fit and finish to match, >> with the elegant look of a vehicle that (of necessity) must move through the air with minimal resistance. >> Yet it incorporates an aggressive stance that provides indication of a car that outperforms most, if not all, of its competitors.

Model S Performancethe performance and handling of this car are truly amazingdont believe me, read the reviews!P90D: 0-60 in 2.8 seconds!! [that supercar territory]handling, braking and corning are superior

The headline shown on your screen tells only part of the story. Sure, in its performance version, the Model S competes with supercars that cost 2 to 5 times more.

But for everyday driving,>> the performance and handling of this car make driving a please>> normally hyper critical automotive reviewers tend to gush about Model S performance!>> in its new ludicrous driving model the P90D is one of the quickest cars in the world, doing 0-60 in 2.8 seconds!! >> handling, braking and corning are superior making a 4,600 hundred pound sedan drive more like a sports car

Model S TechnologyTesla Motors has done so much innovation in the EV space, others are years behindTesla Motors has battery tech and production capabilities that are #1 in the worldAn EV from the ground-upthat matters

>> Because tesla Motors is dedicated to the development of EVs, they must be innovators, not followers. They are, to be charitable, years ahead of their premium competitors in the EV space.>> Tesla Motors has battery tech and production capabilities that are #1 in the world. In fact, the gigafactory, now being completed in nevada, will become the largest battery production facility on the planet>>The Model S was designed from the ground up to be an EV. That means there were no constraints or any effort to repurpose existing ICE vehicle designs, components, or business models.

>> Tesla Motors is not your fathers car company. Its business models is different; its sales approach is different, and its maintenance approach strays from the dealership model>> repair/service is not a profit center. It uses regional service centers, rather than dealerships.>> the overall simplicity of EVs means very little repair/serviceno transmission, no oil changes, no belts>> in many cases Tesla will pick-up and delivery your vehicle for any maintenance that is required>> the company prides itself on customer care, and my personal experience bears that out.

The model s is on the leading edge of a transition to a software-based vehicle. >> In fact, Some have called the car a computer on four wheels>> that means that OTA software updates enhance not only ergonomic features of the car, but also the physical performance of the vehicleFor example, it has been possible to enhance voice input or improve acceleration, and future updates will enable automatic lane change and self steering,leading to full autopilot (the ability of the car to drive 90% of a journey withno driver input).
