Do you find the regular Tesla Model S a bit too bland? Well, then, Caviar has the solution. It’s called the Model Excellence 24K and it’s been bathed in gold. The 24 karat (999) gold was applied to the grille, bumper trim, side mirror caps, fenders, doors, rear diffuser, trunk lid, wheels and brake discs using the “double electroplated technique”, Caviar states, and it contrasts the black body of the electric sedan.
The Caviar logo has replaced the OEM
pieces at both ends. Their name also bedecks the trim separating the
taillights, and ‘First Edition’ emblems were added to the front fenders and
trunk lid. The outer edges of the infotainment system sport a similar makeover,
and so does the dashboard trim and steering wheel that also hosts the luxury
brand’s logo in the middle.
Limited to 99 examples, the Model
Excellence 24K costs US$ 299,000 for the Plaid variant of the Tesla Model S, or
more than double the MSRP of the car in the United States. The Model S Plaid
has a tri-motor set-up, with over 1,100 HP, and can hit 96 km/h in
less than 2 seconds, according to the California automaker.
