Strongly camouflaged versions of the new S model and the model were spotted during the revered and efficient Nurburgring race circuit in Germany, which suggests that the iterants of the S model S and the improved model will soon be on sale.
The images reported for the first time by Autocar reveal that the two models are clearly based on the latest generation of generation, the model sporting the full width light bar at the front and the more elegant lateral profile, while the model contains the new bumper and the grill which arrived with a refreshment of style earlier this year.
However, the two cars identified by hammering around the Nurburgring clearly include additional body elements, including more aggressive air channels on the S model S and a long duck tail spoiler on the Y model to minimize the drag.
In the real Tesla style, we have not received any specification for improved high performance models, although Autocar suggests that the 800 V 800 V electrical architecture could considerably improve the load speeds for the plaid of the review model if it were to be introduced.
Despite this, Tesla is expected in Stick with its double engine configuration with all -wheel drive for the Y model and a trimotoral configuration for the Plaid Model S, which currently develops a 1,020 hp scale and can accelerate from 0 to 60 MPH in just 2.1 seconds, depending on some tests.
The performance of the model will also benefit from the myriad of updates that have been introduced earlier this year, including a higher -end interior, more comfortable seats and improvements in healthy and driving quality.
Take the crown?
The Plaid of Tesla Model S was once the last word of high -performance electric salons, shocking the world with its ability to run consecutive hot towers, even going so far as to establish a record around the Nordschleife circuit of Nurburgring.
This was overthrown by the Porsche Taycan Turbo GT last year, which improved Tesla’s attempt by 18 impressive seconds. However, there are more recent threats from China, the surprisingly affordable SU7 of Xiaomi, taking the fastest electric power car title this month – even improving Rimac hypercar efforts.
Electric performance cars have evolved at a rate since the arrival of the original Plaid Model S in 2021, with Lucid Gaging Popularity and Mercedes-AMG ready to publish its own super living room in a few weeks.
It is a similar story for the performance of the Y model, which occupies the slightly gray area of high performance family SUVs. If it is launched imminent, he will face the formidable Porsche Macan Turbo Electric, as well as the Hyundai Ioniq 5 N and the crossover of all multisgments – Le Brabus smart # 5.
Although it is not intended to be major sellers for Tesla, the introduction of high performance models that have repercussions by the stem could help repair some of the recent damage to its reputation, which has led to a serious sales crisis.
