Model s 60 retiring

Only a couple of weeks remain if you want to order a Tesla Model S 60.

This model S with 60 KWh battery pack was introduced last year to lower the entry price is being retired in April. Tesla say this is to simplify the ordering process. More likely this is a casualty of the pending Model 3, that will be the lower cost Tesla.
One neat advantage of the Model 60 is that you can upgrade the battery pack to 75 KWh via Software. This novel feature implies the Model 60 is just a Model 75 with 15 KWh removed by software implying the same cost to build a S 75 and a S 60.
