It takes just 5 minutes, costs a little over $2,000 and bumps range up substantially.
Less than a week ago, news broke of a massive price cut for upgrading your Tesla Model S 60 kWh to 75 kWh. The upgrade occurs over-the-air and is really quite simple.
A day or so after that news came to light, the first video surfaced showing how the upgrade is performed on a Model S.
Now we have a new video showing the upgrade process in real time. The entire process takes under 5 minutes.
Video description:
"Elon Musk got myself (and I'm sure a bunch of others) to upgrade the capacity of their vehicle this morning with a massive price cut to the upgrade! This is the real time video with no edits to show the time it takes to upgrade!"
As you’ll see in the video, the upgrade from 60 to 75 kWh is officially $2,000.
That’s a killer deal for the added range that access to those additional 15 kWhs provide.
Range should improve by 40 miles or so, according to the chart found here.
