STILL THE BEST FULL SIZE EV? 2021 TESLA MODEL S LONG RANGE PLUS RAVEN REVIEW

EV Channels Review

The 2021 Tesla Model S Long Range Plus, featuring the Raven update, is reviewed as a highly competent full-size electric sedan. The reviewer highlights significant improvements in ride comfort due to upgraded air suspension and notably enhanced noise insulation at higher speeds, diminishing the traditional advantage German premium manufacturers held in these areas. Acceleration, even in the non-performance trim, is described as overwhelmingly powerful, with the reviewer often preferring the 'chill' mode for daily driving. Interior quality and the minimalist, screen-centric design are praised, though rear seat comfort for taller passengers is noted as a minor drawback. The car's range is considered excellent, especially with predominantly slower driving, though highway speeds reduce it to around 300 miles. The reviewer concludes that the Model S, particularly with the Raven upgrades, remains a top choice in its segment, offering a unique and refined driving experience with strong sustainability credentials.
