Tesla was one of the first American electric car companies to specialize in luxury cars, before BMW introduced the i3 and i8.

After the Nissan Leaf model appeared in Saigon, Tesla was brought back by an importer in Ho Chi Minh City with the S version - the most premium electric sedan version in the world.

The body is made of lightweight aluminum alloy with good bearing capacity, the xenon light system automatically responds to light from the outside environment. The fixed single-speed gearbox has a gear ratio of 9.73:1. In addition, the car also integrates safety features such as ABS brakes, balance control, cruise control and eight airbags.

The electric motors are located directly above the front and rear axles, so the Tesla S has a luggage compartment under the front hood and a luggage compartment in the rear. The Tesla Model S sedan uses a 115-horsepower P85 electric motor.

The car accelerates quickly and steadily. However, like many other electric cars, traveling on the road at speeds over 50km/h but the engine does not make any noise, so it is quite dangerous.

Tesla Model S has the ability to connect to the internet via 3G like a smartphone, synchronizing data between the phone and the car is quite convenient.
