Tesla has just announced the first major redesign of the Model S since it laun
ched the electric sedan in 2012. This new version, which starts shipping in Ma
rch, has a refreshed exterior, a simplified interior, and the option for a mor
e powerful powertrain that lets the car travel at least 520 miles and go from
0 to 60 miles per hour in under two seconds. Tesla says this makes it the “fa
stest accelerating production car ever made.”

Tesla’s Model X is also getting the interior update, and there will be a vers
ion with that new powertrain, though the SUV’s refresh is not as extensive.

The new Model S has some light updates to the exterior of the car, including a
standard large glass roof, but the biggest visual change is inside. Tesla has
axed the portrait touchscreen in favor of one more like what’s found in the
Model 3 and Model Y, though with far smaller bezels (like we’ve seen on the C
ybertruck prototype). There’s also a stalkless U-shaped butterfly steering wh
eel, much like what we’ve seen in the forthcoming second-generation Roadster,
and a screen behind the center console for rear-seat passengers. Unlike the M
odel 3 and Model Y, the new Model S still features a screen behind the steerin
g wheel.

The new Model S starts at $79,990 for a “Long Range” dual-motor version that
gets 412 miles of range. Or people can spend $119,000 for one with the new, m
ore powerful “Plaid” powertrain that goes 390 miles with that sub-2 second 0
–60 time. The “Plaid+” version with 520 miles starts at $139,000.

The Plaid and Plaid Plus versions have top speeds of 200 miles per hour, while
the Long Range tops out at 155 mph. Tesla says that the Plaid versions should
be able to do five times as many quarter-mile runs as previous Model S sedans
, thanks to the new powertrain and the new heat pump that was developed for th
e Model Y.

The new Model X retains the same exterior design but features the new landscap
e dashboard screen, butterfly steering wheel, and rear passenger screen. The n
ew Model X starts at $89,990 for a Long Range dual-motor spec that has 360 mil
es of range, a top speed of 155 mph, and a 0–60 time of 3.8 seconds. Tesla is
selling a version with the Plaid powertrain for $119,000 that gets 340 miles
of range, has a top speed of 163 mph, and can get to 60 mph in just 2.5 second
s.

A Model S redesign has been rumored for years, with Electrek posting allegedly
leaked renders of the new interior all the way back in 2018. Tesla CEO Elon M
usk threw cold water on the idea in 2019, though, when he tweeted “[t]here is
no ‘refreshed’ Model X or Model S coming.” Tesla instead was constantly ma
king minor improvements to both vehicles, he said.

But that tune started to change once Tesla started testing out a new powertrai
n in 2019 dubbed “Plaid” — which, much like the “Ludicrous” acceleration
mode in Tesla’s cars, is a Spaceballs reference.

Musk said at Tesla’s Battery Day event in September 2020 that the Plaid Model
S would be coming in late 2021. But aside from the basic specs, and the addit
ion of the car to its website, Tesla didn’t mention anything about a design r
efresh.
