On October 23, Tesla’s luxury flagship models made their return to the European market. After being briefly removed from Tesla’s online configurator in July, the Model S and Model X are once again available for order across Europe.
Deliveries are expected to begin in November, with the Model S starting at €109,990 and the Model X starting at €114,990. The latest updates bring enhancements in ride comfort, cabin noise reduction, and energy efficiency.
Design and Comfort Upgrades
While Tesla’s design team made only minor exterior adjustments, the refreshed versions feature improved sound insulation, an enhanced active noise cancellation system, and recalibrated air suspension to provide a smoother and quieter driving experience.
The addition of new 19-inch and 21-inch wheels and ambient interior lighting gives both flagships a more modern aesthetic. According to Tesla’s Europe and Middle East division on social media platform X, the third-row seating space in the Model X has also been optimized to improve passenger comfort.
Both models now come equipped with adaptive headlights, blind-spot warning indicators, and a standard front-facing camera. Thanks to aerodynamic wheel designs and low rolling-resistance tires, overall efficiency has been improved. The new Model S boasts a WLTP range of up to 744 km, while the heavier Model X can travel up to 600 km on a single charge.
Performance Enhancements for Model S Plaid
As Tesla’s performance flagship, the Model S Plaid has received deeper upgrades in this update. It features a redesigned front fascia, a new front splitter, and an optimized rear bumper fitted with a carbon fiber rear spoiler and diffuser to enhance high-speed stability.
On the chassis side, carbon-sleeved rotors have been added to deliver improved performance under extreme load conditions. The Model S Plaid accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 2.1 seconds, and when equipped with the optional ceramic braking system, it can reach a top speed of 322 km/h—all while maintaining an impressive range of up to 611 km.
