Overview & Reviews
Tesla favors running changes throughout the year rather than annual updates so major changes may depend on the timing of your purchase. Most recently, the company released an all-wheel-drive, dual-motor model called the "D." Available on Model S's with the 85kW battery and known as the P85D, these trim levels add all-wheel drive along with several safety enhancements including a 360-degree sonar system and collision avoidance braking.
- Potential reliability issues.
- Lacks the convenience, familiarity and luxury polish of similarly priced sedans

American Ingenuity Electrified - 2014 Tesla Model S
By rickallen - December 31 - 7:11 amI have the P85D AWD. The powertrain alone is worth the cost of entry. Faster than Ferrari performance, AWD, and every stomp of the accelerator doesnt burn a gallon of gas. Flex your foot and your face and body are thrown back with nearly no accompanying noise. The silence makes the acceleration somehow more rocket like, as if some unseen force is hurtling you toward the horizon. This car is the future of powertrains.

Overpriced for what you get - 2014 Tesla Model S
By Randy Martin - August 30 - 8:32 pmI have owned the P85D since December. Although the vehicle is incredibly fast and fun to drive the car is a disappointment. The front seats are very uncomfortable. We were promised new seats in February, didnt happen. The navigation system is the worst I have ever used except for the BMW. Mr. Musk told us all the wonderful thing that the New D will do so I bought one. The car does none of these. My wifes Kia has more safety features than the D. Its coming we are told.,I am elderly and am hoping I live long enough to have my tesla have the features I was promised.
