Tesla wraps up its flagship EV era with limited-run Signature models and exclusive design details.
Tesla has officially confirmed the end of production for its flagship electric vehicles, the Model S and Model X, marking the occasion with a limited-run Signature Edition.
This final series serves as a sendoff for two models that helped reshape the global auto industry. Production will be strictly limited to just 250 units of the Model S and 100 units of the Model X, with the SUV offered exclusively in a six-seat configuration.
Pricing for the Signature Edition starts at $159,000, reflecting both its collector status and unique styling. Each vehicle is finished in a deep Garnet Red exterior with gold accents on badges and logos. Inside, buyers will find a white interior paired with individually numbered plaques.
Both models are based on the top-tier Plaid configuration, featuring a tri-motor setup delivering 1,020 horsepower. Performance remains a highlight, with the Model S riding on 21-inch wheels, while the Model X gets larger 22-inch rims.
In addition to visual upgrades, owners will receive a Luxe package that includes a four-year warranty and complimentary access to Tesla’s Supercharger network. Deliveries are scheduled for May 2026, when the company plans a dedicated event to mark the end of an era.
The move signals a broader shift in Tesla’s strategy. Production lines at its Fremont facility—where the Model S and Model X have been built for over a decade—are set to be retooled for large-scale manufacturing of the Optimus humanoid robot.
As Tesla turns its attention toward robotics and autonomous mobility projects like the Cybercab, the more affordable Model 3 and Model Y will remain in production.
The Signature Edition models, meanwhile, are likely to go down in history as icons of the EV revolution that defined the 2010s.
