Tesla revealed its new Model S prototype at the independent firm's design studio in Hawthorne, California, yesterday. The second model in the company's two-strong range, the Model S is the first vehicle designed by Franz von Holzhausen since he left Mazda to become Design Director at Tesla last year.
The sleek, four-door coupe features the new face of the electric automaker and a DLO shape similar to that of the Rapide concept unveiled by Aston Martin in 2006. It also features a panoramic glass roof, split into two sections, that blends into the steeply raked backlight. The rear, meanwhile, comprises elements that are reminiscent of Jaguar's XF sedan. It's an elegant and refined design.
The high-tech interior, which will accomodate five adults and two children if fitted with optional rear-facing seats, features vegetable-tanned Italian leather and recycled carpeting made from PET plastics. A large 17-inch touch screen interface controls the HVAC, navigation and entertainment functions. Tesla expects to start production the Model S in late 2011.
