Today's featured articleThe Tesla Model S is a battery-electric, four-door full-size car, produced by Tesla since 2012. Considered by critics as one of the most influential electric cars, Tesla began developing the Model S around 2007. To produce the Model S, Tesla acquired a facility in Fremont, California; mass production of the car began there in June 2012. Tesla carried out final assembly for European markets at its facilities in Tilburg, the Netherlands, between 2013 and 2021. Changes to the car have included the introduction of Tesla Autopilot—a partial vehicle automation advanced driver-assistance system, released in 2015. That year, the Model S was the world's best-selling plug-in electric vehicle. The car has received accolades, including the Motor Trend Car of the Year award in 2013. Time named it one of the Best 25 Inventions of the Year 2012 and later included it on its list of the 10 Best Gadgets of the 2010s in 2019. To charge the Model S, Tesla operates a network of fast-charging stations. (Full article...)
