The "P85-R," Tesla Motors' Very First Muscle Sedan



Abstract:
To most turbo Regal enthusiasts, it's clear that Buick's "Grand National" was not really a performance upgrade as much as it was a trim package. It was the "T-Type" option that added to the G-Body Regal a Garrett turbocharger and other performance goodies. Where Grand National became the supreme trim upgrade for Buick's Regal, so the Model S-based, P85-R seeks to become the "Grand National" of Tesla.
