The Tesla Model S glides like a luxury sedan from the future, delivering instant shove and serene highway composure that make it feel equally at home on a rush-hour commute or a long-distance cruise. Inside, its minimalist cabin and gadget-forward interface turn every drive into a tech demo, making it as much a statement piece as a practical choice — and one that still manages to feel a little bit magical.
