Current Model S Production Closure until 1/11/2021

[brunla]

I was suppose to take delivery of my Model S by end of 2020 but I delayed it not knowing if a refresh was coming, or if they are fixing the suspension issues that I have read about. If they were to even do a "light refresh" on the car what features do you think that would include? Can't take the suspense!

Nobody knows for sure.
Nobody likes to speculate.
Because it's never what anyone expects.

Enjoy the ride.

182 pages over 3.5 years? Oh, I think people like it just fine.

OP, you can start reading here if you need some baseless speculation to tide you over.

Model S range and interior update imminent?

Nobody knows for sure.

If Elon Musk doesn't know for sure then it is business as usual at Tesla.

I have delayed ordering a M S waiting to hear if the S will have a refresh. Has anyone received a refreshed Model S or know when this may happen? My Model 3 needs a friend!

No.

An old adage goes something like: "A watched Model S refresh...never boils" or something to that effect.

What’s going on. It’s January 19 and still no production?

Just because they reopened the line doesn’t mean cars just start popping out, if it’s a significant change it’ll be a while.

If the cars were actually refreshed including sheet metal then the 1/11/21 date probably just meant all the new stamping and welding equipment was in place. There would be a lot of fine tuning, many early scrap cars, then a dribble of salable product coming off the line while they ramp.

The marketing material will probably be ready just about the time the cars are.

Since the early Tesla days that seems to be the trend. We are down to a dribble of salable cars yet they seem to continue to push the rest on the consumer anyway .
