The Tesla Model S has a surprising amount of cargo
capacity. If you need more, you need look no further than the Model X
crossover. But if what you really wanted was a Model S wagon, you’re in luck.
Because one such creation is ready for its big debut.
Designed by Niels van Roij and constructed by
RemetzCar, the Model S shooting brake was commissioned by Dutch collector
Floris de Raadt.
The same outfit that built a hearse based on the
same, RemetzCar kept the core structure of the electric sedan in tact, right
down to the crumple zones. But it developed a new tailgate, with a rear spoiler
and hidden wiper and brake light. It also fitted a bold strip of chrome to make
it look that much sportier. And it painted this first example in a gold-flecked
green.
This won’t be the only example it will make, though.
Following its debut next month at the International Concours d’Élégance Paleis
Het Loo in the Netherlands, RemetzCar will build as many as 20 units. That is,
assuming enough customers step forward with cash in hand.
