Elon has blessed us with another price break on the S, now only $69,420. This gets you dual motors, premium interior, 402 miles of range, 3.7 0-60 time.
Con: Its still the old body style
Pro: Its still the old body style, they have fixed all the issues now. Maybe they can put them together and have things line up by now.
Con: Its slower than the Model 3 Performance that now sells for only 55k.
Pro: 3.7 seconds vs 3.2 seconds isn't much, and the 402 miles of range vs 299 miles more than makes up for it for a larger touring type car.
Con: Its Not an SUV, this is America and we only buy Trucks or SUVs!
Pro: Again, the range. The Model Y "SUV" only gives you 291 miles and 3.5 0-60. Model X well lets just forget they even built that.
So you get the best range, pretty good acceleration, excellent interior space, all for a price that is getting reasonable. The supercharger network and the 400 mile range makes this a viable touring vehicle. Even with a stiff winter mileage penalty you can go pretty far.
I'm not going to buy one but its getting much more attractive now. If i had to replace our TourX today i would seriously consider the Model S.
If not the Model S, what else fills this roomy touring role with this kind of a price point and sub 4 second 0-60 performance? A Charger Hellcat is competitive, but at great fuel expense.
