2013 Tesla Model S has a choice of three lithium-ion battery size, along with a selection of Performance for the model with the greatest package. They are by far the top choice and model, although there is a short list of options too - including a more robust onboard charger.
When you are in the Model S, the first feature and so far the most striking is the 17-inch huge touchscreen display that occupies the whole center stack.
The Silicon Valley roots Tesla [NASDAQ: TSLA] Motors shows the "surprise and delight" high quotient for the user, especially the driver. Activating the turn signal, and you will see it blinking light on photo-realistic images on the screen Lights car. Ditto parking lights, lights, and so on. Want to open your sunroof? Just swipe your finger along the plan view of the Model S, to the rear. Or you can use the slider to unlock it to any percentage you want.
Instrument cluster behind the steering wheel is fully digital, too. But most of the minor controls are operated through a touchscreen car center, demanded that the driver turned off the road - even though the size of the screen allows the font is really big and the control icon. Response speed also means that they react instantaneously.
Drivers initially skeptical questioning the practicality and interference factors such as big-screen control functions that are most likely to convert. Together, the Model S display speed and size to help reduce disruption compared to almost all other cars with similar systems. Its brilliant graphics, easy-to-learn controls screen, and lightning-fast response system throw another car to second-class status. IDrive famous BMW, Mercedes-Benz COMAND system, a mass-market MyFord Touch - all of them instantly outdated and primitive.
One of the most surprising features of the display Model S is a full web browsing, through a built-in cellular connection. We're not sure how long that will continue - the FBI might be tempted to consider - and we hope that drivers never do it unless the car is parked. That said, it's wicked cool.
While portable storage devices can be connected to play digital music via the audio system Model S, the popular web applications like Pandora, Spotify, and Switcher has not been implemented. Tesla said they were coming soon. Nor does the voice command is activated, which we feel will definitely help to reduce any disruption factor.
If the screen display is jaw-dropping good news, lack of power, security, and comfort accessories may be bad news. Model S is very short on the kind of advanced technology that fur from its competitors. He did not even have the memory settings for seats and mirrors, let alone adaptive cruise control, lane departure warning or correction, parking proximity sensors, and automatic braking in case of an accident.
Tesla makes the case that the types of features are less important to buyers early model of S, styling performance, and electric propulsion. We can believe that, and obviously add the option will weaken the energy of the car's primary mission: moving passenger mile most in charge. Tesla also said that listening closely to the initial purchasers, and have made small changes and updates based on the feedback. (One of them is the addition of user-selectable idle creep.)
Each 2013 Model S is equipped with a 10-kilowatt onboard charger, while a car with a 60-kWh and 85-kWh battery pack can be ordered with a 10-kW charger both well. With special Tesla charging station, recharge time for 40-kWh pack smallest battery (using household outlet 240-Volt) is about four hours - assuming the circuit is strong enough to handle the 10-kW at 240 Volts charging.
Model S forgoes J-1772 charging socket used by any plug-in when the car is sold. Instead, Tesla designed its own, unique plug and socket that integrate regularly and quickly charging into the same connector. At least the company provides J-1772 adapter cable with every S model, so the car can be recharged at charging stations public and private standards.
Four versions of the 2012 Tesla Model S is priced as follows: A 40-kWh battery versions cost $ 57,400 before incentives, version 60-kWh $ 67,400, 85-kWh version of the $ 77,400, and a 85-kWh Performance option runs $ 87,400. With this option, the total cost of the high-end version can approach $ 100,000. Model S will be the first car built in 1000 known as the Signature Series, the distinctive red color of paint that will not be offered again, and with each car individually numbered.
Options include no cost Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 tires on 21-in wheels and a giant glass panoramic sunroof, priced at $ 1,500.
Qualifying buyers can receive $ 7,500 federal income tax credit to purchase any version of the Tesla Model S. California among them can also receive discounted purchase of $ 2,500, and get a "white sticker" coveted allowing electric cars to travel on the California High-Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lane with only a single occupant.
Beyond the cost of the car itself, it should be noted that in late 2012, Tesla unveiled the first in a network plug Supercharger on fast charging stations. They let the driver Model S with a supercharger option rechargeable battery up to 80 percent of even the greatest in less than an hour. Owner longer range version of the Model S could drive from San Francisco to Los Angeles, with one or two stops less than an hour - for dinner, maybe. Best of all, free of charge to owners of Tesla. The company hopes to have a lot of the U.S. highway system is equipped with appropriate Superchargers placed at the end of 2013.
