The Tesla 2024 Model S Review

July 4, 2024

Tesla’s full-size model x 2024 EV is a blast to drive and boasts one of the longest battery range ratings in the class. A standard suite of advanced driving aids and safety features is included. It also has the best head-up display in the business, which dwarfs similar systems in rivals. Tesla’s $6,000 Full Self-Driving misnomer adds steering capability on city streets plus traffic-light and stop-sign control.

Although some expected a significant refresh for 2024, the Model S remains essentially unchanged. You can still choose the sporty Plaid variant, whose triple-motors help it to class-leading acceleration and top speed ratings. But the base model remains a compelling option as well, with a huge infotainment screen that manages nearly every vehicle setting and a slate of apps.

It’s a bit of a bargain for an ultra-luxury electric sedan, too, even if you opt for the more expensive wheels and tires that improve the car’s EPA rating to 359 miles. You’ll need to charge the battery at home using a standard 110-volt outlet or at Tesla’s ubiquitous Supercharger network, which can get you back to full power in under an hour.

Cargo space is adequate for an SUV, with 25 cubic feet behind the rear seats and 61.4 cubes with them folded. Its minimalist cabin, however, feels dated against newer rivals with more style and comfort features. It’s a top pick for an ultra-luxe EV, but the Porsche Taycan and Mercedes-Benz EQS Sedan offer more traditional luxury and more space.
