Tesla wanted to blend in more to the normal automotive world, so Tesla crafted a streamlined, aerodynamic electric car. Up front, HID headlights which are standard equipment and are the only option available. LEDs don't come until the 2017 refresh, where it swaps the blocked off grille for a cleaner look, and in my personal preference, I prefer the pre-refresh Model S. LED fog lights are also standard. One odd quirk of having an electric powertrain from Tesla is that you get a cavernous "frunk". Dual motor models give you less capacity up front because it is AWD.

Even after seven years of being on the market, the Model S still looks like a concept car from the side. It has flush door handles, that pop out when you unlock the car or approach and touch the door handle. The Model S has a long hood, a sloped roof line, and it leads to a fastback design.

The rear of the Model S is really conservative, and personally kinda boring. You get some pretty basic LED taillights, a chrome strip going through it, and a faux diffuser down below. No visible exhaust tip either (You know this is an electric car, right?) But the cool part is that the charge port is integrated into the taillight. If you go up to it with the charger and stand there or tap on the port, it will open automatically. You can also open it from the Tesla app, or from the gigantic 17-inch touchscreen on the inside.
