I'm not a car or truck person.. so forgive the ignorance.. but is it rear wheel only? The `Drivetrain: REAR-WHEEL DRIVE` section has me perplexed for a number of reasons.

1. I thought Teslas where all wheel? Ie, the nature of how they work is such that each wheel was a motor. Is that not the case for this one?

2. Isn't all-wheel a valuable offering? This doesn't seem to be an off-road focused vehicle.. but nevertheless I personally value all wheel. Am I wrong in this?

I find this weird. I can't afford it anyway, BUT, I have often joked that I need a small Tesla truck to replace my Prius. However, strangely nothing about this interests me. Even if I had the money.



There are other motor options which have AWD. There's also an option which tows 14,000 lbs, which is a very large load, double the load an F-150 tows.


Looks like they have a AWD and AWD (triple engine) package.


The base model is RWD, the higher specs are AWD
