I’m sure that co-founder and head of product design at Tesla Motors, Elon Musk would agree that progress is finally moving forward in the electric car field, especially for luxury cars. His concept of the Model S has been in the works for some time and was finally made public as a prototype at the 2009 Frankfurt Motor Show. And just last year, the US started receiving the first of over 6500 orders that were placed for the vehicle in 2011.

The Tesla Model S is gorgeous. But not only is it a gorgeous vehicle, it’s an all electric, full-size sedan with 3 options for it’s Lithium battery packs, 40-kW-hr, 65-kW-hr and 85-kW-hr. Depending on the battery pack, mileage ranges from 140-300 miles approximately plus the battery packs are guaranteed by Tesla Motors for 8 years or 125,000 miles. All versions of the Model S seat five passengers with an option of a folding third row. The cool thing about this third row is it becomes a rear-facing 2 child seat. Each of these seats have a racing style 5-point harness and have a weight and height limit for children sitting in these seats.

The Model S was a vehicle that was intended to compete with some of the higher performance vehicles like the BMW’s but has the capacity to save the owner money with the price at the pumps on the rise. The base price for this vehicle in the US is roughly $57,400 but also there is a Federal Tax Credit of $7,500!

This year alone, the Telsa Model S has recieved several awards:

  • 2013 World Green Car of the Year
  • Automobile Magazine’s 2013 Car of the Year
  • Motor Trend 2013 Car of the Year

Among many other awards. The Tesla Model S will cost you a pretty penny to buy but will save you on gas and emissions, what’s important to you?
