Powertrain and fuel economy

Powertrain: Electric Single-speed · RWD
Horsepower: Not verified Combined system horsepower and torque are not verified for this exact configuration in the retained sources. Individual EPA motor ratings are not added together.
Torque: Not verified
City efficiency · U.S. EPA: 88 MPGe
Highway efficiency · U.S. EPA: 90 MPGe
Combined efficiency · U.S. EPA: 89 MPGe
Driving range · U.S. EPA: 234 mi
Seats: 5
Seat rows: 2

Sources & notes

This record describes the stated 2016 U.S. configuration only; it does not represent every model year, wheel option, battery revision or seating layout in this model family.
Dimensions retain the manufacturer’s millimeter values (rounded to whole millimeters where necessary) and separately published inches. They are approximate and may vary with equipment.
Efficiency and range are from the exact current EPA record 37233: Model S (70 kW-hr battery pack). MPGe is gasoline-equivalent energy efficiency, not gasoline MPG.
When the EPA record does not name a wheel size, no wheel size is inferred. The rating must not be extended to every wheel or tire option. Software, battery changes, temperature and driving conditions can alter real-world range.
The first-generation browsing group includes later facelifts and the 2021 interior/powertrain revision. The year selector selects the exact configuration; newer dimensions are not applied to earlier records. U.S. model years end in 2026 after Tesla announced production had ended.
Combined system horsepower and torque are not verified for this exact configuration in the retained sources. Individual EPA motor ratings are not added together.
