Overview

The Tesla Model S Dual Motor (2021-…) is an all-electric all-wheel drive liftback. It came out in 2021. Brand new, the car starts around €94,990.

The Tesla Model S Dual Motor (2021-…) has a 100 kWh battery pack, allowing it to travel up to 579 km on a single charge. The car has an average efficiency of 16.4 kWh per 100 km (or 6.09 km per kWh) — ranked №35 out of 852 electric vehicles.

How powerful is it? How fast does it accelerate?

The Tesla Model S Dual Motor (2021-…) achieves a 0 to 100 km/h acceleration in 3.2 seconds (placing it at №13 out of 120 ranked positions, among 852 electric vehicles, with some cars sharing positions) and attains a maximum speed of 250 km/h.

Its powertrain provides a power output of up to 504 kW (676 hp) and a torque of Nm.

How far can it go on single charge? What is the real-world range?

Tesla Model S Dual Motor (2021-…) achieves a real-world range of 579 km, placing it at №27 among 335 ranked positions. 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.

Utilize the interactive EV Navigation map for trip planning assistance.

What charging options are available? How long does it take to charge it?

The Tesla Model S Dual Motor (2021-…) in Europe comes with a CCS Type 2 (Tesla) charging port. It can be charged at home using a standard domestic socket or at any public AC charging station with the compatible cable. It's important to note that the car's on-board charger (inverter) limits the maximum AC charging rate to 11 kW, resulting in approximately 60 km of range added per hour of charging.

For significantly faster charging, public DC fast-charging stations are available. Although the car can achieve a maximum DC charging rate of 250 kW, factors such as battery temperature and charge level may affect the actual charging speed.

Use our EV Charging Calculator to estimate charging time, rate, and cost.

How big is it? What are the dimensions (length, width, height)?

The size and weight specifications for Tesla Model S Dual Motor (2021-…) are as follows:

Length: 5021 mm
Width: 2189 mm (including side mirrors) or 1987 mm (excluding side mirrors)
Height: 1431 mm
Wheelbase: 2960 mm (distance between the center of the front and rear wheels)
Curb weight: 2068 kg (weight of the empty car, no people or cargo)

How much cargo space does it offer? Does it have a front trunk?

The rear cargo area of the Tesla Model S Dual Motor (2021-…) provides 709 litres of space when the rear seats are upright (№36 out of 193 ranked positions, among 852 electric vehicles, with some cars sharing positions).

Folding these seats down unlocks a maximum cargo capacity of 1739 litres (№45 out of 190 ranked positions, among 852 electric vehicles, with some cars sharing positions).

In addition, the car has a frunk, a front compartment with 89 litres dedicated to smaller items.

Is it suitable for towing? What is the maximum towing capacity?

The Tesla Model S Dual Motor (2021-…) is officially rated to tow 1600 kg. This applies to trailers equipped with brakes.
