Tesla has brought the Model S and Model X back to Europe after a brief absence, introducing subtle upgrades aimed at improving comfort, efficiency, and overall refinement. The refreshed versions of the two luxury electric vehicles are now available for order, with first deliveries expected in November.
The Model S starts at €109,990, while the Model X is priced from €114,990. Both vehicles retain their signature designs, with exterior changes limited to new 19-inch or 21-inch wheels and updated ambient lighting inside the cabin. The Model X’s third-row seating has been reconfigured to provide better shoulder room, enhancing comfort for seven-passenger configurations.

Tesla has improved noise insulation in both models through enhanced soundproofing materials and upgraded active noise cancellation systems. Suspension adjustments and fine-tuned air systems contribute to a smoother ride. The interior interface has also been redesigned, and both vehicles now come standard with a front camera, adaptive headlights, and blind spot warning lights to improve safety and visibility.
Efficiency improvements include new aerodynamic rims, low-rolling-resistance tyres, and refined powertrain components for consistent performance in extreme temperatures. Tesla reports a WLTP range of up to 744 kilometres for the Model S Long Range and up to 600 kilometres for the Model X, both featuring all-wheel drive and a 95 kWh battery pack.
The high-performance Model S Plaid receives more extensive upgrades, including redesigned front and rear aprons, a carbon rear spoiler, and aerodynamic enhancements for better downforce. Tesla has also modified the drive system with carbon-sleeved rotors, maintaining its acceleration capability of 0–100 kph in 2.1 seconds.
With optional ceramic brakes, the Model S Plaid can reach a top speed of 322 kph and offers a range of 611 kilometres. Owners of the Plaid variant will also enjoy lifetime free access to Tesla’s Supercharger network.
