According to Business Insider, the car is like Tesla Model S (already in Vietnam) in terms of appearance, but actually improved significantly. Faster acceleration, higher maximum speed and for the first time, the efficiency of the car actually increased despite the increased engine mass.

The new product has three versions: 60D, 85D and P85D . A special feature of this model to distinguish it from the Tesla Model S 1 rear 2-wheel electric motor was previously the character "D" - short for "dual-motor" , added after the code name of the 4-wheel drive Tesla.

Model S P85D is the top model and becomes the fastest sedan model on the planet. CEO Elon Musk said, this version has 3 control settings: Normal, sports and super speed. The car is equipped with a 2-wheel drive electric motor with 221 horsepower capacity, 331Nm of torque and a rear-wheel drive electric motor with a capacity of 470 horsepower, 600Nm of torque. Total capacity and torque P85D in turn achieved 691 horsepower and 931Nm. This power helps the 2.24-ton vehicle reach the fastest speed specifications of today's sedans. Model S P85D accelerates from 0 to 96km / h in 3.2 seconds (on par with supercars like Ferrari, Porsche and Mercedes) and reaches a top speed of 250km / h.

The other two models, the S 85D and 60D, use two electric motors with a capacity of 188 horsepower, 245 Nm of torque placed behind the vehicle and give a total capacity of 376 hp. However, their ability is worse than the Model S P85D when 85D accelerates from 0 to 96km / h in 5.2 seconds and reaches a maximum speed of 250km / h, while the 60D is in 5.7 seconds and transports Maximum speed is only 200km / h.

But Musk said "there's another new thing" about this new car: autopilot . He claimed that it was not a completely unmanned vehicle, but instead controlled itinerary - following the speed limit (the car could automatically read speed limit signs) and even lice can turn off the steering wheel without the driver's hand on the steering wheel, putting the car into the garage. You can also "summon" the car to where you want, automatically open the music or adjust the temperature to your liking.

This advanced feature is supported by optical camera systems and sensors using 360-degree sonar waves to assess traffic conditions and obstacles that could be dangerous.

And you really need to see Autopilot believe it. This 90-second video will convince you are watching the future of cars and driving.
