What sets it apart?

Apart from its speed, the Tesla Model S is also known for its software updates, which can improve the car’s performance and features even after its purchase. The car also offers fast charging through Tesla’s Supercharger network.

The Model S uses a low centre of gravity due to its floor-mounted battery pack, which improves handling and stability. It also includes features like adaptive air suspension and active safety technologies.

Not available in India?

As of now, Tesla has not officially launched the Model S in India yet. Some Model S cars have been imported privately, but they come at a high price due to import duties.

The Tesla Model S shows how far electric cars have come not just in range and comfort, but also in raw performance that can match or beat many fuel-powered sports cars. For now, it remains one of the best examples of combining speed with sustainability.
