Addressing investors during a Q4 earnings call, Musk said: "We are super excited to announce the new Model S and Model X production now and it will be delivered in February. So we've been able to bring forward the fab, Model S and X. And Model S will be delivered in February and X a little later. The Model S pad and we're actually in production now, and we'll be delivering next month."

Detailing the unique features of the new Model S, Musk said: "So this is a tri-motor Model S with a completely new interior. There are actually a lot of great things about this."

"The Model S will be the first -- this Model S pad will be the first production car ever that is able to go 0 to 60 miles an hour in under 2 seconds. So no production car ever has been able to get below 2 seconds 0 to 60."

"This is a luxury sedan that is able to go 0 to 60 in less than 2 seconds and will have the ability to seat up to seven people with the third-row seats. So this is pretty nice. This is faster, to be clear, than any car."

"It's not like there was a different type of car, like a two-door sports car that was able to do that faster. This is the fastest accelerating car ever made for -- that is allowed to go on roads in history. And like I say, we'll start delivering it in a matter of weeks."

"We will be actually raising the price of Model S for these new models, so people -- because the old model -- the new model will be $10,000 more. So, hopefully, people aren't too upset if they bought the old model last month, but this one is 10k more," Tesla CEO said.
