Tesla Model S Trims and Equipment

When exploring Tesla Model S trim levels, distinguish the technical version from its equipment configuration. Dual motor P100D kWh Long Range Plus is offered with a configuration named Standart. That label alone does not establish which features are included, so check the individual car’s comfort equipment and driver assistance functions.

Tesla Model S Battery, Range, Charging

Both named versions use lithium-ion batteries. Tesla Model S battery capacity is only part of the range picture: speed, cold weather and cabin heating also affect how far you can travel between charges. For everyday convenience, consider your home charging access; for longer journeys, plan compatible charging stops and allow time to recharge.
