> We’ve been expecting Tesla to reveal the facelifted Model S sometime this month, perhaps even this week, and well, this looks like it! And its new nose looks like it was grafted on from the Model X.

They fixed it! Based Musk.

Looks a lot better

I personally think both the old and new look fine but the new one does look a bit more unique to Tesla. I think it's good for Tesla to have its own signature styling that is more easily recognizable on the road.

the forced no grille meme looks so fucking out of place.

it's like they really, REALLY want to show off that this car doesn't need a radiator grille while still having a small one to make it look a little less alien.

either fucking find a better solution or do a fake grille again. this looks half-assed as fuck.

come on man, doesn't look that bad
>>

>>14831322

It rather looks the same with the only difference being the grille delete to make the transition to the new car lineup which won't have a grille.
>>
>>14831322
You think so? I am actually considering hiding the thread so I don't heave.
>>
>>14831220
They could still use a grill for cabin air, fucking retarded musk.
>>
>>14831210
Fucking this

I think this looks worse than before. I don't mind the no grille deal though.

Who gives a shit about coupes when you'll get a bioweapons defense mode instead?!

grills are a source of drag.

It would be an easy fix, just remove the concave section of bumper.

I feel the same. Single life best life.

That's already uncomfortably big where I live. E-Class will be plenty enough for me.

I do know what you mean mate, it looks so different to what I'm used to. However a fake grill will surely just feel like those fake engine noises. Contrived. Only it will also add drag and decrease performance.

Get rid of it, I say.

Coupes are fucking useless. Especially to the market the Model S is marketed to.
>>
>>14831210
Fukken saved
>>
similar problem to the 3
there's an outline of a grill in the contours but no grill there, it looks strange.

even if the fake plastic grill on the original S isn't necessary, it really balances out the front end
>>
>>14831785
to that end, how to do nogrill correctly; lil bit of a shark nose, pic related.

people will complain that it looks too porsche like but that's because porsche has been doing no-front-grill forever
>>
>>14831790
That's sexy
>>
>>14831796
exactly, because there's no distracting outline created by contours
here's another example render but i think the curved "beak" it creates isn't nice to look at

I feel like the fatass nose of the car is a bigger one. If you don't need a grill, then lower the fucking hood line. It doesn't need to be so tall.
>>
>>14832246
crash standards, unfortunately.
>>
>>14832255
crash and pedestrian safety, but i believe pedestrian safety factors into it much more and has a bigger impact on the whole car (higher hood line = higher belt lines = smaller windows etc)
>>
at this speed there will be 30 Tesla threads on /o/ tomorrow
>>
>>14831069
I want to know when they'll release it with no front storage, but with extra batteries in there instead.

Or develop a system that can charge it from flat in 5 minutes.
>>
>>14833173
extra batteries up front would destroy the weight distribution and make it even heavier
200 miles of range (i think the base model is like 230 now) is completely fine, if you regularly travel more than 200 miles in a day you're in like the 95th percentile of drivers
