Tesla Model S共有七种不同的动力配置可以选择
(60、60D、75、75D、90D、100D、P100D)
而其中60/60D车主购买之后可以透过软件付费解锁成75/75D
最便宜的Model S 60起价为6.8万美元(301.3万台币)
而Tesla正计划取消60/60D的贩售，2017/4/16将是最后能订购Model S 60/60D的日子
这原因除了大多数车主购买60/60D之后都会另外付费解锁之外
同时也可能是为了即将正式发表/量产的Model 3腾出空间做准备
这项调整对于台湾来说影响更大
因为 60/60D 车型并没有跨过奢侈税门槛，台湾售价只要 301.3/326.8 万台币
而在这之上的车型全部都需要课征奢侈税
75/75D 售价为 368.5/394 万台币
比起60/60D来说高了不少
想要买入门款的Tesla就要趁这一个月下订了，过了这时间入门价格就会高了不少

Electrek has learned that Tesla is planning to discontinue the least
expensive versions of the Model S next month. Today, Tesla started
sending out emails to warn potential buyers who have shown interest in
the vehicles that the change is coming and Electrek confirmed the news
with Tesla.
April 16th, 2017 will be the last day to order the Model S 60 and 60D.
The vehicles were the least expensive models that customers could
purchase from Tesla – starting at $68,000.
The Model S 60 and 60D were equipped with 75 kWh battery packs
software-locked to 60 kWh. Owners were able to unlock the remaining 15
kWh through a software update for a fee at any time after the purchase if
they decided that they wanted more capacity.
Tesla says that they are making the change because most customers
ultimately end up upgrading to 75 kWh and they want to streamline the
ordering process.
As we reported earlier this week, Tesla has 7 powertrain options now that
the 100D is being delivered. If nothing else is introduced after the
16th, the change will bring down the number to 5 options.
It comes as Tesla is preparing to launch the Model 3, which should start
at $35,000, but higher performance versions are expected to be offered at
higher prices closer to the price of the Model S. It would make sense for
Tesla to try to create a bigger gap between the two vehicles.
The base version of the Model 3 is expected to feature a battery pack
smaller than 60 kWh and we reported that Tesla has been driving a Model 3
test mule with a 70 kWh battery pack. Now that Tesla’s least powerful
option for the Model S is about to become a 75 kWh battery pack, it would
make sense that the less expensive Model 3 would have an option below the
more expensive Model S.
What do you think? They are making room for the Model 3 or something else
is coming for the Model S after April 16? Let us know in the comment
section below.
