DETROIT (Reuters) - Tesla Motors Inc (Nasdaq: TSLA) said it plans to offer new versions of its battery-powered Model S sedan, including a $70,000 entry version and a range-topping edition.
The new 70kWh, single-motor Model S is priced $5,000 less than the current entry model, the dual-motor Model S 70D.
At the top of the range, Tesla will offer a 90kWh battery pack upgrade to the dual-motor Model S 85D, which will give the car a range between charges of nearly 300 miles. It also will enable the car to accelerate from zero to 60 miles per hour in 2.8 seconds, in what Tesla Chief Executive Officer Elon Musk termed "ludicrous mode."
