We've been reporting about a newly refreshed Tesla Model S that's been revealed via spy shots. However, we weren't 100 percent sure when deliveries would begin, though rumors suggested immediately. We also weren't positive if the refresh was going to apply to Plaid models initially, or just the standard Model S.
Essentially, the refresh isn't really a refresh. While that's typically the case if you ask Tesla or Elon Musk, since they insist they never refresh their vehicles, this really is a small update, though notable for several reasons.
The most obvious changes include new matrix headlights and updated taillights. Keep in mind, the Model S just recently saw a much more substantial refresh when the Plaid was added to the lineup. At the time, Tesla also refreshed the Model X, but it's been facing delays. The automaker also refreshed the Model 3 to follow suit with the Model Y, which just came to market in 2020 and has already seen some notable updates.
