Design & Presence

The Model S wears a long, low silhouette that reads like a modern grand tourer rather than a compact hatchback, its 5,021 mm length and wide 1,987 mm stance giving it serious road presence. Clean surfaces, a steeply raked rear and flush details keep the profile slippery and grown-up, while the hatchback layout is a practical touch beneath the drama. At the front and rear the styling is understated rather than flashy, which suits buyers who want performance and tech without shouting about it.

Interior & Usability

The cabin is famously minimalist: a large central touchscreen dominates controls and infotainment, backed up by a driver display and a second display for rear passengers on some trims, with most functions routed through software updates. Materials generally feel premium across seats and trim, though some hard plastics appear in out-of-sight areas — a reminder this is still a technology-first car. Ergonomically the layout is simple once learned, but the reliance on the touchscreen for many functions can be distracting compared with physical buttons.

Space & Everyday Practicality

Practicality is a strong suit: the Model S seats five and offers a useful 799 litres of trunk space with up to 1,828 litres when folded, plus a useful frunk for light items, so grocery runs and weekend baggage are handled with ease. The car is heavy — around 2,092 to 2,197 kg curb weight — which is normal for large EVs and translates to a planted feel but higher cornering loads. Payload of roughly 430–440 kg means typical family gear and passengers are well within its capability.

Driving & Handling

Acceleration is a headline act: current versions include the Model S with about 670 hp, 0–100 km/h in roughly 3.2 s, and a hyper-focused Plaid with 1,020 hp and a 0–100 km/h sprint near 2.1 s, so straight-line performance is supercar-level. Despite the thrust, the long wheelbase and weight give the car composed, stable handling on highways rather than razor-sharp agility on twisty lanes; steering is precise but heavy at speed. Regenerative braking and instant torque make city driving effortless, while the high-speed stability keeps long-distance cruising relaxed.

Efficiency, Consumption & Range

Energy use is competitive for a car of this size: the standard Model S is rated around 16.8 kWh/100 km with up to about 744 km range, while the Plaid is closer to 18 kWh/100 km and about 611 km range on manufacturer figures. In everyday use expect those figures to tighten depending on speed, weather and heating — highway cruising and cold climates will reduce range more noticeably. Charging infrastructure and fast-charging speed are central to real-world usability: long trips are viable, but planning stops remains necessary for the quickest journeys.

Assistance, Entertainment & Updates

Tesla’s software is the car’s operating system: an advanced driver-assist suite with features like adaptive cruise and lane guidance is standard, and over-the-air updates continually change functionality and infotainment. Navigation integrates charging stops and live energy estimates, while the massive screen, premium audio and streaming apps keep occupants entertained. The active safety and semi-autonomous features are powerful tools when used correctly, but buyers should check local regulations and understand system limits before relying on them.

Who Should Park This in Their Garage?

The Model S suits buyers who want a long-range, high-tech electric saloon that doubles as a daily luxury cruiser and an occasional straight-line rocket for enthusiasts — the standard Model S leans toward range and comfort, while the Plaid targets outright performance. Families who need space and tech will appreciate the room and practicality, and tech-oriented customers will value the constant software evolution. Those seeking the lightest, most analog driving experience or the cheapest EV will find better fits elsewhere, but for high-speed refinement, range and tech in one package the Model S remains a compelling choice.
