Musk cancels Model S Plaid+
Tesla CEO Elon Musk has publicly cancelled plans to produce the Model S Plaid+
Model S Plaid+, which would have been Tesla’s highest-end model with a driving range of 520 miles, was unveiled at a battery event last year and the billionaire stated that said it would adopt its next-generation 4680 battery cells. But production was pushed back to 2022.
“Plaid+ is canceled. No need, as Plaid is just so good.”
Musk on Sunday called the Model S Plaid the “quickest production car ever made of any kind” and therefore another model was not even needed.
He tweeted that the car can reach 60 miles per hour in under 2 seconds.
The Model S Plaid was scheduled to be unveiled at an event on June 3, which has been pushed to June 10.
The Model S Plaid costs $112,990, according to the company’s website.
