You want fries with that supercharge?
Tesla is forever in the headlines: whether it s eccentric CEO Elon Musk tweeting Bitcoin into oblivion, or hippies attacking a Tesla factory in Germany, the controversial EV manufacturer just can t seem to stay out of the limelight, and now it s coming for your belly. That s right; Tesla has just filed a new trademark under restaurant services, as it plans to expand on its charging infrastructure. This move has been a long time coming, as Elon Musk tweeted about a similar move back in 2018. Musk was planning an old-school drive-in, roller skates & rock restaurant at one of the new Tesla Supercharger locations in Los Angeles.

The Plaid s specs are groundbreaking if they turn out to be accurate. Tesla promises a 1,020 horsepower tri-motor setup with all-wheel-drive, yielding a 390-mile estimated driving range, 200 mph top speed, and 1.99-second 0-60 mph time. We ve seen Tesla s prices are subject to sudden change, but the Model S Plaid is currently listed at $119,990 before savings.
White is the only no-cost paint option, and the optional 21-inch wheels add $4,500 to the price while dropping the driving range to 350 miles. An all-black interior comes standard with carbon fiber or wood trim, while black/white or cream interior colors cost $2,000. Finally, customers can spend $10,000 on the Full Self-Driving Capability, a feature that still does not exist in the capacity Tesla describes.
