Tesla Model S and Model X refresh on arrival as EV sales begin, report says

Tesla may finally be close to a refresh for its oldest cars on sale, the Models and Model X. According to an Electrek report on Friday, citing sources familiar with the automaker’s plans, Tesla recently asked employees to liquidate all Model S and Model X cars currently in the company’s inventory, which likely indicates electric vehicles updated this year.

The website also noted that Tesla actually shut down the assembly lines of the automaker’s two flagship electric vehicles in December. Combined with the latest information reported, it certainly looks like changes are underway. Tesla does not operate a PR department to respond to requests for comment, so as always with these kinds of Tesla rumors, take it all with a grain of salt.

However, if Tesla is determined to sell its current Model S and Model X stocks, there may be a good deal going on. Maybe we’ll see the company sweeten the deal in some other way with prolonged free overeating or something like that. We’ll have to keep an eye out for any sort of additional incentives, which could be further proof that Tesla is ready to usher in new, refreshed electric vehicles.

We haven’t heard much about what the refreshed Model S and X electric vehicles might contain, but an alleged sketch has reportedly shown what the company has cooked up for the two luxury cars. The rumored overhaul appears to include many elements of the Model 3 and Model Y with a more minimalist approach and a massive screen in the center.

The updated S and X EV models were not what to expect from Tesla in 2021, but that would be a nice surprise. Cars may seem light years ahead of other luxury EVs at the moment, but they’re starting to look a bit dated.
