Tesla Model S Long Range

The Model S is not the newest model in the range, but in many areas the Tesla Model S is still in a class of its own in electric car circles.

In the latest Model S, the front axle motor has been upgraded to a permanent magnet motor, which Tesla promises will improve the car’s range by up to more than 10 percent. The Long Range Model S has a WLTP range of up to 610 kilometres on a single charge.

The fully adjustable chassis now adapts to the driver’s driving style and the car’s sensors adjust accordingly. The chassis height is now adjusted according to the type of chassis, not just the speed of the vehicle.

Updates to Tesla models are made wirelessly to the car via the internet. The latest free updates for the entire Tesla line-up in 2019 include Sentry Mode, On-Route Battery Warm Up and Dog Mode.

Sentry Mode provides additional protection against theft and vandalism by monitoring the environment with in-car cameras while the car is parked. On-Route Battery Warm Up, as the name suggests, pre-heats the car’s battery while the car navigates to the Tesla Supercharger. This saves an average of 25% in charging time, as the battery is already at the right temperature to receive the charging current when it arrives at the charging station.

Dog Mode, as the name suggests, takes care of the furriest members of the family by keeping the car air conditioned while parked.

As a car manufacturer, Tesla is very much ahead of other manufacturers in many areas. Practicality seems to be one of the most important things, without forgetting performance.

The Tesla Model S Long Range offers excellent drivability combined with practical and spacious interiors, while offering the best range on the market on a single charge.
