• Blind-spot monitor (alerts you if a vehicle in the next lane over is in your blind spot)

• Adaptive cruise control (maintains a driver-set distance between the Tesla and the car in front)
• Forward collision mitigation (warns you of an impending collision and applies the brakes in certain scenarios)

Plaid
Tesla's top trim level, the Plaid gets maximum performance via an upgraded battery system and an additional motor but otherwise has the same features as the base model. Total output stands at 1,020 horsepower.

Edmunds' testing shows the Plaid can sprint from zero to 60 mph in just 2.3 seconds, while the EPA says it can provide up to 396 miles of range on a full charge and when equipped with the car's 19-inch wheels. Going with the 21-inch wheels drops that estimate to 348 miles. We've put this latter Model S Plaid through our real-world EV range test; it made it 345 miles, which is among the longest distances we've observed.

Tesla's so-called Full Self-Driving Capability option is available on the Model S. 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. Tesla also says the Full Self-Driving Capability feature will gain additional automated driving capabilities in the future via over-the-air updates.
