It will be available in three battery power options, 60 kWh, 85 kWh, and 85 kWh “Performance,” the option that will make it the first electric car with towing capacity according to Tesla. It remains to be seen how the ability to tow will effect the car’s range which is of absolute importance in an all electric car.
