What makes you say that isn't a D? Looks to me like it is ... notice that the front wheels, as well as the rear wheels, are dug in to the sand, with a small pile built up at the rear of the tires. To me that suggests all 4 wheels spun, grabbed no traction, and the car sunk in soft sand.Actually dual motor model S would be fine on the sand, so long as:
1. Not so soft that underbody drags.
2. Tyres deflated to about 16psi.
3. Not too fast that you sandburn the bodywork.
That image the sand looks way too soft to take a low car like this, but the drivetrain itself is actually superior to most 4X4s.
I've been there before and seen this with other "all wheel drive" cars (eg Audi, BMW) but not 4x4s. For sand, you need not just 2 driving axles, you also need big, thick, low pressure tires.
