Frequently Asked Questions
How powerful is it? How fast does it accelerate?
The Tesla Model S P85 (2012-2014) achieves a 0 to 60 mph acceleration in 4.2 seconds (placing it at №143 among 693 electric vehicles) and attains a maximum speed of 130 mph.
Its powertrain provides a power output of up to 310 kW (416 hp) and a torque of 443 lb-ft.
How far can it go on single charge? What is the real-world range?
Tesla Model S P85 (2012-2014) achieves a real-world range of 224–274 miles, placing it at №321 among 693 electric vehicles. However, this range is subject to several influences:
Speed: Traveling at higher speeds reduces battery life.
Temperature: Extreme cold or hot weather can affect range.
Terrain: Hilly or mountainous landscapes decrease range.
Driving habits: Aggressive driving with frequent acceleration and braking consumes more energy.
Feature usage: Climate control and media systems also influence range.
It's important to acknowledge that these are estimations, and your actual driving range may differ. Consider these factors when planning your trip and be ready for potential charging stops.
What charging options are available? How long does it take to charge it?
The Tesla Model S P85 (2012-2014) in the USA is equipped with a Tesla (NACS) charging port. You can charge it conveniently at home using a standard outlet, or utilize any public AC charging station with the appropriate cable. However, the car's built-in charger (inverter) limits the maximum AC charging speed to 10 kW, which translates to roughly 28 miles of range added per hour.
For faster charging, use DC fast-charging stations. The Tesla Model S P85 (2012-2014) supports a maximum DC charging rate of 120 kW, but it's important to note that battery temperature and current charge level can affect the actual charging speed you'll experience.
