They’ve fully redesigned the S twice (2016 and 2021, rumored again in 2025), the X once (2021), and the model 3 once (2022). The model Y is rumored for end of this year or early next year.
I had to check Wikipedia to be sure. OK, the S got updated motors or restyled taillights, but they’re all externally indistinguishable for the non Tesla nerd. Look at how the Corvette and Mustang changed over the years, or the F-Series trucks. They went with the zeitgeist, and the S is still visually stuck in 2012.
Fave lift, new wheels, different lights front and heck. Front spoiler, side profile, larger back wing, different mirrors, windshield angle is flatter, heck has a very different form.
And that’s just what I took from a quick look at this grainy picture.

Now say the same for the 911 since 1998. Updated taillights, updated motor, updated interior. Still virtually the same design.

Model 3 had a big refresh this year (2024).
