🔋 2025 Tesla Model S & X Updates: Price Hike, Subtle Tweaks, and the Bigger FSD Picture


Tesla has made some mild updates to the Model S and Model X for 2025 — and while the design remains familiar, there are a few new touches under the hood (and in the cabin) worth noting. Sam Evans from The Electric Viking breaks down what's new, what’s not, and what it all means for Tesla’s place in the EV landscape.

📈 Price Increases and Minor Refreshes

  • Model S: Starts at $85,000; Plaid at $100,000
  • Model X: Starts at $90,000; Plaid at $105,000

Evans speculates this $5,000 increase is due in part to the end of the $7,500 U.S. EV tax credit.

⚠️ No major tech changes — no 48V or 800V upgrades, just a modest 5-mile range boost from wheel tweaks. Plus, the new Frost Blue paint is available for an extra $2,000.

🛞 Range and Ride Enhancements
  • Model S Long Range: Now offers up to 420 miles (with 19” wheels)
  • New aerodynamic wheels improve efficiency
  • Cabin is quieter due to better insulation and noise cancellation

✨ New Features and Styling Details

  • New front fascia camera for improved visibility
  • Dynamic ambient lighting across dash and doors
  • Upgraded bushings and suspension for a smoother ride
  • Adaptive headlights with smart high-beam functionality
  • Model S Plaid: Rear splitter for high-speed stability
  • Model X: More third-row and cargo space
🚗 Wheels & Battery Talk
  • New 22-inch wheels: Beautiful but impractical
  • Recommended: 20-inch wheels on Model X for better range
  • Model S Long Range: Achieves 420 miles with 19” wheels

Sam also highlights a deal on EcoFlow Delta 2 and Delta Pro batteries, with discounts up to 45% off.

🔮 Market Outlook: Falling Behind?

Evans voices concern that the Lucid Air now surpasses the Model S in range. Without a major tech leap, sales may stagnate — especially with Chinese EV makers expanding rapidly. While Tesla's design has aged well, innovation is needed to maintain leadership.

🌍 Big Shift: FSD and China’s Data Approval
  • China now allows Tesla to transfer FSD data overseas
  • This helps AI training and neural network improvements
  • Elon Musk: Latest update has “almost zero interventions”
  • Tesla plans to remove steering-wheel nagging, but this could invite legal risk

🔖 Final Thoughts

The new Model S and X updates are refined, but not revolutionary. With Lucid and Chinese rivals gaining ground, Tesla must accelerate innovation — especially in the age of full self-driving and AI-first competition.

TSLA 12월 1주차 주봉 차트 분석｜2025년 테슬라 흐름 완전 해석

이미지
요즘 주식시장 분위기가 심상치 않습니다. 특히 변동성이 큰 테슬라(TSLA)는 매주 새로운 흐름을 보여주며 투자자들의 마음을 흔들고 있죠. 📉📈 그런데 이런 상황에서 가장 중요한 건 결국 기준점 을 잡는 것입니다. 단기 뉴스가 아닌, 큰 그림을 그려주는 주봉 차트 분석이 필요한 이유죠. 이번 글에서는 테슬라의 주봉 차트를 기반으로, 현재 흐름이 어떤 의미를 가지는지, 앞으로의 가능성은 어디에 있는지 꼼꼼하게 정리해보겠습니다. ① 방향성이 애매한 TSLA, 어떻게 봐야 할까? 요즘 테슬라 주가를 보면 상승세라 하기엔 힘이 부족하고, 하락세라 하기엔 견고한 지지력을 보여줍니다. 특히 400달러 후반대에서 움직이는 모습은 ‘추세가 어디로 갈지 혼란스러운 구간’이라는 느낌을 주죠. 투자자들은 이런 질문을 던지고 있습니다. 지금이 눌림목 매수 구간일까? 아니면 더 큰 조정의 시작일까? 주봉상 추세는 아직 살아있는 걸까? 이 애매함이 바로 시장에서 가장 위험하고도 기회가 되는 포인트이기도 합니다. ② 방향성 없는 흐름 속 불안감은 커진다 주봉 차트의 무서운 점은 ‘추세가 꺾이는 순간’이 오면 데미지가 오래간다는 것입니다. 단기봉은 반등하기 쉽지만, 주봉은 방향이 한번 바뀌면 3~6개월은 이어지는 경우가 많죠. 최근 TSLA 차트를 보면: 이동평균선이 서로 수렴하며 변곡점을 만들고 있고 캔들 사이즈가 줄며 변동성도 안정되는 듯 보이나 하락 캔들과 저항 테스트가 반복되고 있어 에너지 축적 흐름 이게 투자자들에게 주는 메시지는 단 하나입니다. “이 구간이 곧 다음 추세를 결정한다.” ③  주봉 차트에서 잡히는 핵심 시그널 ✔ 1) 주요 지지선: 430 ~ 445달러 여러 번 테스트된 견고한 구간. 이 라인이 무너지면 중기 하락 전환 가능성이 큽니다. ✔ 2) 주요 저항선: 485 ~ 500달러 해외 차트 분석가들도 공통적으로 언급하는 구간. 돌파 시 새로운 추세 열림...

Tesla Launches Driverless Delivery from Factory to Home — The Future Has Arrived 🚨 Delivery Inefficiencies in the Auto Industry Have you ever wondered why receiving a newly purchased car can take days—or even weeks—after production?
