The company Ilona Mask announced the removal from production of the most affordable Model S 75 at the moment. The orders for the release of the car for $ 69,500 will cease to be accepted this Sunday - September 24. So the rear-wheel drive version of Tesla with one electric power plant goes down in history.
Now its place in the model line will take Tesla Model S 75D. It is equipped with two electric motors which drive the front and rear axles. The price rose by $ 5,000 to $ 74,500.
According to auto experts, the company Mask took such a step to avoid the internal competition of Model S with its "younger" colleague Model 3, which is now equipped with a single power plant with a capacity of almost 260 "horses". This car accelerates to 100 km/h in just 5.1 seconds, and its speed reaches 225 km/h. And the battery charge is enough for 500 kilometers. It is worth the Tesla Model 3 $ 44 000.
