Tesla Model S review: the Model S P90D | Top Gear

Yes, it's the 762bhp saloon with 'Ludicrous' mode. Ollie Marriage reports

# data.attributes.metatag[].attributes.content
So, how was the Tesla Model S P90D's Ludicrous mode?Hold your horses, I’ve got some other stuff to discuss in this Tesla Model S review first. But yes, this is a P90D with the Ludicrous Speed option. That costs an extra £8,700 (on top of the pre-rebate price of £86,900), and no, it’s not just a software upgrade.

though. Flick the indicator on and it’ll make sure there’s nothing to the side and change lane for you. Does it work smoothly?It’s the best I’ve used. Firstly

# data.attributes.metatag[].attributes.content.reviewBody[]
it’s so simple to operate – just a double pull on the cruise control stalk

it reacts quickly when cars ahead pull out of the way. Often

and whether this is a good thing or not is debatable

quite a while. Minutes rather than seconds. Normally as soon as one of these systems detects that your hands aren’t touching the wheel

# data.attributes.metatag[].attributes.content.reviewBody[]
it wastes no time in reminding you to put them back on. But the Tesla seems more relaxed about matters

# data.attributes.metatag[].attributes.content.reviewBody[]
bossy and reactionary. As a result it’s very smooth in autopilot mode

# data.attributes.metatag[].attributes.content.reviewBody[]
most of us drive more to the right to give us extra space to the cars in the middle lane – it’s that slight difference between our judgement and a computer’s that these systems can’t replicate – just as they can only respond to what their sensors can see in the immediate vicinity. They are reactive

not predictive. They can’t do what you do

# data.attributes.metatag[].attributes.content.reviewBody[]
but for the time being this is about as good as it gets. So let’s move on and talk about the rest of the car – what it’s actually like as a car.The thing that strikes you about all Teslas

# data.attributes.metatag[].attributes.content.reviewBody[]
is that they approach things with a different

# data.attributes.metatag[].attributes.content.reviewBody[]
more open mindset. While the German big three permanently mark each other

# data.attributes.metatag[].attributes.content.reviewBody[]
and end up feeling rather generic in their quest to keep within the brand ethos

# data.attributes.metatag[].attributes.content.reviewBody[]
Tesla is different.Not necessarily better different

# data.attributes.metatag[].attributes.content.reviewBody[]
not even in the massive centre console box

# data.attributes.metatag[].attributes.content.reviewBody[]
quality and design finish aren’t in the same league as Merc

# data.attributes.metatag[].attributes.content.reviewBody[]
it’s the lack of storage that’s the biggest issue. There’s a whopping great tray on the floor between the front seats

# data.attributes.metatag[].attributes.content.reviewBody[]
and beyond a pair of (modestly sized) cupholders

# data.attributes.metatag[].attributes.content.reviewBody[]
and a pointless slot under the screen there are no door bins

# data.attributes.metatag[].attributes.content.reviewBody[]
or anywhere to securely put your phone/wallet/keys.How about the rest of the dynamics?Much better. The low speed ride on the 21in wheels is decent

# data.attributes.metatag[].attributes.content.reviewBody[]
and the suspension nicely insulated. And because all the weight is concentrated so low down and inside the wheelbase

# data.attributes.metatag[].attributes.content.reviewBody[]
it doesn’t roll and slop about. It’s very refined

# data.attributes.metatag[].attributes.content.reviewBody[]
with little tyre or other road noise entering the cabin – and you’d notice it

# data.attributes.metatag[].attributes.content.reviewBody[]
because there’s no engine noise to cover it up.And the precision of the throttle at low speeds is a triumph – no lurch

# data.attributes.metatag[].attributes.content.reviewBody[]
just millimetre-perfect response. It makes creeping along in traffic a doddle. Although of course you could just toggle Autopilot and have the car do it for you.It cruises contentedly and quietly

# data.attributes.metatag[].attributes.content.reviewBody[]

# data.attributes.metatag[].attributes.content.reviewBody[]
using one of its superchargers. But in our experience we didn't quite meet that…The massive central screen is a delight though

# data.attributes.metatag[].attributes.content.reviewBody[]
so logical to use despite the array of functions. It mostly does without the endless sub-menus that often makes an equivalent German luxury car so mind-boggling.Ultimately it’s a very simple car to own and operate

# data.attributes.metatag[].attributes.content.reviewBody[]
and there’s a lot to be said for that.So now tell us about Ludicrous mode.You select it via a button in the control menu

# data.attributes.metatag[].attributes.content.reviewBody[]
and if you want to go full-house launch control

# data.attributes.metatag[].attributes.content.reviewBody[]
which pre-heats the whole system. Then you have to select launch control: press brake

# data.attributes.metatag[].attributes.content.reviewBody[]
then release throttle. A message telling you launch has been enabled appears on the screen

# data.attributes.metatag[].attributes.content.reviewBody[]
so you re-apply your right foot to the bulkhead

# data.attributes.metatag[].attributes.content.reviewBody[]
then you just release the brakes.And…It’s astonishing. There’s no wheelspin

# data.attributes.metatag[].attributes.content.reviewBody[]
even pressure shoving you forward. It’s utterly relentless up to about 70mph

# data.attributes.metatag[].attributes.content.reviewBody[]
but after that it starts to tail off.I put our data-logger on it

# data.attributes.metatag[].attributes.content.reviewBody[]
and it didn’t quite hit the numbers it’s supposed to

# data.attributes.metatag[].attributes.content.reviewBody[]
although that could well have something to do with the cold weather and fact it was running winter tyres (even though there was no wheelspin

# data.attributes.metatag[].attributes.content.reviewBody[]
the traction control might have detected a hint of slip and reined things back a little).Still

# data.attributes.metatag[].attributes.content.reviewBody[]
0-60mph in 3.2 seconds isn’t slow and I don’t doubt it would go faster as the P85D we tested last summer hit the exact numbers it was meant to (60mph in 3.1secs). Anyway

# data.attributes.metatag[].attributes.content.reviewBody[]
the full numbers are below for you to have a pore over and next week we’ll put some little videos out.Anything else?There are some neat tricks in the menus

The sports seats are £2,200 as well, that carbon fibre lip spoiler? £850. In total, our car was £113,180, which for a car with scratchy plastics is a lot.

But it’s cool, it’s interesting, it’s different, it’s super-fast, it makes you feel good about zero emissions, it works simply and logically, it pretty much dismisses range anxiety, it’s smooth, and it’s engaging on a whole new level.
