Frequently Asked Questions

How fast is Tesla Model S 85D

The Tesla Model S 85D is equipped with a powertrain that delivers up to 315 kW (422 hp) of power and 487 lb-ft of torque.

This enables a 0 to 60 mph acceleration in 4.2 seconds (ranked №107 out of 572 electric vehicles) and a top speed of 155 mph.

Real-world range of Tesla Model S 85D

The estimated real-world range for Tesla Model S 85D falls between 232–284 miles, ranking it №200 out of 572 electric vehicles. Several conditions can influence this range:

Speed: The battery drains faster at higher speeds.
Temperature: Extreme temperatures can impact range.
Terrain: Range is reduced on hilly or mountainous terrain.
Driving style: Aggressive driving behaviors, such as frequent acceleration and braking, decrease efficiency.
Feature utilization: Climate control and media system usage also affect range.

These figures are approximations, and your actual driving range may vary. When planning trips, consider these factors and be prepared for potential charging stops.

Tesla Model S 85D charge port type?

In the USA Tesla Model S 85D has a Tesla charge port.

You can charge it at home using a standard domestic socket or plug into any public AC charging station using the right cable. Keep in mind that the car's on-board charger (inverter) limits the maximum AC charging rate to 10 kW, which translates to approximately 29 miles of range added per hour of charging.
For quicker charging, consider using a compatible DC fast-charging station. The car boasts a maximum charging rate of 120 kW, but remember that battery temperature and charge level can influence the actual speed you'll experience.
