Used 2020 Tesla Model S Sedan Trims Comparison

Be aware that Tesla updates the Model S on an ongoing basis rather than by model year, so what follows might not necessarily reflect the most current offering.

The standard Model S Long Range offers 373 miles of range and a 0-60 mph time of 3.7 seconds. Standard feature highlights include an adaptive air suspension, LED headlights, a power liftgate, heated front- and second-row seats, a heated and power-adjustable steering wheel, a 17-inch touchscreen and a navigation system. Later in the model year, this was replaced by the Long Range Plus, which offers up to 402 miles of range.

Every Model S comes with a suite of safety systems that Tesla calls Autopilot. This includes front and rear parking sensors, a blind-spot monitor, lane departure warning, adaptive cruise control, and forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking.

The Model S Performance sees a reduction in range to 348 miles, but the sprint to 60 mph is estimated at a face-flattening 2.4 seconds. (Note: It can only deliver on that promise a few times per charge.)

The so-called Full Self-Driving Capability option is available on both trims. It adds nifty semi-automated driving features, including automated parking and the ability to change lanes simply by flicking the turn signal. It also adds the Summon feature, which Tesla says enables the vehicle to drive unmanned to its owner in a parking lot. Larger 21-inch wheels are optional on either model, though adding them reduces vehicle range slightly.
