Tesla Model S Plaid REVIEW IN CANADA

The Tesla Model S Plaid might be the most impressive vehicle to be released in recent years, and I don’t say that lightly! With its sleek design, fast acceleration, quiet ride, and massive storage space, this car can do it all. If you’re looking to buy your next vehicle, consider checking out the Tesla Model S Plaid. I’ll be diving into all of the vehicle’s features below, so keep reading if you want to learn more about this impressive car!

ENGINE AND PERFORMANCE

The first thing we need to ask ourselves is what exactly is a Tesla? There have been many electric cars before, so why do we need one more? Well, even though there are other electric cars out there such as General Motors’ Chevy Volt and Nissan’s Leaf, they don’t really compare. For starters, they use lithium-ion batteries that only give you about 100 km of range per charge. The Tesla Model S has a battery pack that can take you more than 600 km on just one charge! That’s right, no more stopping at gas stations every 200 km or having to plug in your car every night. With its supercharger network growing across Canada, it will soon be possible for Tesla owners to drive anywhere without worrying.

This means you could travel almost anywhere in Canada using nothing but electricity. Not only does it offer an impressive range, but Tesla Model S also gives you some serious performance with its 1020 horsepower engine capable of reaching 0-100 kmph time of just 3.2 seconds. And if that wasn’t enough, you can add even more performance with the Model S Plaid which allows you to go from 0-100 kmph in just 2.1 seconds! 

It also features a regenerative braking system that feeds power back into its large lithium ion battery pack whenever you let off of the accelerator pedal. So instead of wasting energy, it charges itself up for another round of acceleration. And because of its innovative aerodynamic design, you don’t have to sacrifice efficiency for speed.

EXTERIOR & Interior

The car looks great to the eye, has a sleek exterior, and fits in well with any collection of luxury cars. Inside, you’ll find a spacious cabin with an enormous 17-inch touchscreen that serves as both your navigation system and control panel for all of your car’s other functions. The touchscreen gives you access to apps like Spotify for music as well as Google Maps for directions.

You can also use it to adjust your climate controls, check on charging progress (you can plug in at home or at one of Tesla’s Supercharger stations), or even change how your steering wheel feels—it comes standard with three settings: comfort, standard, and sport. Another nice touch is that if you have a smartphone connected via Bluetooth, your phone will automatically pop up on screen when you get into the car so you don’t have to manually connect it every time. It’s just another way Tesla is making life easier for its drivers.

What’s under the hood? What’s most impressive about the Model S isn’t what you see but rather what you don’t see. There are no tailpipes, gas tanks, pistons, or mufflers—just electric motors at each wheel spinning away silently. It makes for a smooth ride and clean air inside. All told there are over 200 moving parts in a gasoline engine versus only 40 in an electric motor—and that means fewer things to break down over time. And since electricity is cheaper than petrol, maintenance costs are lower too.

Safety Features

In addition to being considered one of the most innovative cars on the road, it’s also loaded with great safety features. The Tesla Model S has been given five out of five stars for overall crash protection by both US NCAP and NHTSA. Tesla has demonstrated their commitment to safety with a number of innovative systems that are more advanced than those offered in other new models. 

Auto Pilot provides automatic emergency braking, lane departure warning and side collision avoidance. This is especially useful when combined with blind spot detection and rear cross traffic alert. While these features have yet to become standard equipment on all vehicles, Tesla has made them available now as part of its Autopilot system.

Is it Practical?

The Model S is a well-made, quality car with a plethora of safety features and impressive power. The fact that it’s electric means it can save you money on gas costs (however, remember that electricity isn’t free). But there are some downsides: You can only travel just over 600 km before needing to recharge, and recharging requires an outlet or a charging station. If you don’t have access to either of these things, your mobility is severely limited.

For many people, driving a conventional vehicle is easier and more convenient than driving an electric one. However, if you live in a city or other area where public transportation isn’t readily available—or if you just want something different—the Tesla Model S could be worth considering. It’s certainly one of the most impressive cars on today’s market!
