Another day has come and yet another change has been
made to Tesla’s range of vehicles following confirmation that the rear-wheel
drive Model S 75 will be scrapped before the end of the year.
Starting at US$ 69,500, the RWD Model S 75 is the
cheapest vehicle currently sold by the electric automaker, but with the first
Model 3 deliveries already commencing, it is thought Tesla has decided to
further differentiate the US$ 35,000 entry-level vehicle from its bigger and more
expensive sibling.
Ditching this model also means that both the Model S
and Model X will be offered exclusively with all-wheel drive configurations for
2018 allowing the company to streamline production, The Truth About Cars
reports.
