TESLA MODEL S P90D REVIEW - YEARS LATER, IS THE HYPE REAL?

EV Channels Review

Years after its release, the 2016 Tesla Model S P90D, especially with Ludicrous mode, still delivers an astonishingly fast and engaging driving experience. The acceleration is described as "unreal" and "insane," providing a thrill that few cars can match, even by today's standards. The reviewer highlights the intuitive and well-integrated touchscreen interface, noting its ease of use despite requiring attention from the road. Tesla's Supercharger network is praised as a significant advantage, simplifying long-distance travel. However, the review points out some drawbacks, including the dated interior design and materials, particularly the rear seat comfort, and the occasional lag in the infotainment system. Build quality concerns, such as the malfunctioning door handle, are also mentioned. Despite these points, the P90D's performance, advanced tech for its time, and the overall Tesla ecosystem solidify its position as a favorite electric car for the reviewer, even when compared to newer competitors like the Jaguar I-PACE.
