I have searched the forum and found little mention of 2 features I would love to see on future EV's from Tesla (Perhaps my forum searching skills are somewhat poor?).
1. An AWD Model S - Why? Because I drive frequently on compact snow and ice and would like the benefit of improved handling without having to go with the larger Model X. IMO an AWD car with an electric motor drive train, in theory, should be able to be tuned to have the best handling of any car in the world.
2. A 2+ Speed Transmission - Why? Possibility of improved efficiency at high speeds, and faster quarter mile time
Obviously I made a couple of assumptions here, but I am still curious if there is any news with regards to and AWD Model S or a 2+ Speed Transmission for future cars. Any thoughts?
