Getting better and better - the new Tesla Model S Plaid 2025: Still a supercar, now with better muscle, brains and manners

The redesigned 2025 Tesla Model S Plaid is faster, smarter, and more comfortable than ever before – and yes, it can do 0 to 100 km/h in less than two seconds. In a four-door sedan body. No activation button. Just like that.

If you Tesla Model S Plaid 2025 It wasn't a completely clear beast until now, and now it's even harder to ignore. The updated version of this electric supercar, which plays in the league of hyper-performance sedans, brings a host of technological and design improvements. And not just on paper - this is a car that effortlessly combines the comfort of everyday driving with the brutality of the racetrack.

Better braking power – even in the morning, on the way to get a croissant – Tesla Model S Plaid 2025

First, about the brakes – those of you who have encountered carbon-ceramic brakes know that they usually only work well when they are hot enough. Well, with Tesla have gone a step further. The new brake system with so-called “continuous carbon matrix” technology allows full braking power even when coldWhich means that even if you just drove out of the garage, Plaid will stop as if you've already done five laps of the Nürburgring with it.

In addition, the new brakes are 15 kilograms lighter. Every kilogram saved means better responsiveness, better acceleration, better everything.

Eye-catching color – and aerodynamics

The new shade “frost blue” is something special. It’s not just another blue – in the right light angle it almost shines like liquid metal. Yes, we can indulge in automotive blue poetry without a guilty conscience.

The wheels, dubbed “Valyrian,” are here not only to show off the new giant red calipers, but also for aerodynamics. You can equip them with aerodynamic caps that improve range – because Tesla takes every percent seriously.

Design tweaks you actually notice

Plaid is now even more “Plaid” – with a new front and rear grille, enlarged air intakes and an aggressive spoiler and diffuser. But it’s not just about the look – every part has an aerodynamic function. It all balances the lift front and rear, which means more stability in – let’s say – legally very dynamic speeds.

The cabin of the future that doesn't try too hard

Inside? New sports seats with separate side bolsters, ambient lighting with a thousand colors and (if you're up for it) even light animations that react to music. Of course, built-in screens front and rear, USB-C, wireless charging, video games and even the ability for the kids in the back to listen to their YouTube while you listen to jazz in the front. All in the same car. No screaming.

The steering wheel in the shape of a cry (no, that's not a pun on the word "cry") remains - polarizing, but futuristically useful, especially if you have automatic driving mode engaged.

Driving experience: from comfort to extreme without foreplay

Revised suspension, improved shock absorbers and a more balanced aerodynamics means, that Plaid is now riding softer, quieter, and more preciselyThe comfort in the back seat is much better, too – which means your passengers won't think you're taking them to the centrifuge.

And yet… 0–100 km/h in less than two seconds, 1,020 horsepower, 9.2 seconds per quarter mile and a top speed of 322 km/h. And it's still a sedan. You still have room in the back for the family and an IKEA shelf.

Digital support and software goodies

Autopilot, “Joe Mode” (so you don’t wake the kids with audible warnings), an advanced camera on the nose of the car for parking and driving in blind spots, systems for automatically lifting the car depending on road conditions… It’s all here. And live alerts if someone commits “key vandalism” too close to your car – with the option to send them a voice message right from your phone: "Friend, the camera is watching you."

Conclusion: A legend who doesn't rest, but trains

The Tesla Model S Plaid remains one of the most incredible combinations of technology, speed, and utility on the market. Now it's even more refined, more comfortable, more aerodynamic, and with a bit more style. While it hasn't been "completely" redesigned, every corner has been improved - meaning it's one of the few automotive icons that's truly gotten better over the years.

If you're not into speed, you'll be impressed by the silence. If you're not into video games, you'll enjoy the feeling of driving something special. And if that's not enough for you - remember that you're sitting in a sedan that can outrun most supercars in the world. Without a single fireworks from the exhaust.
