Tesla Has Abandoned the Model S and Mercedes Wants to Fill the High-End EV Void

In January, Tesla announced plans to stop production of its high-end Model S and X vehicles, choosing to turn that manufacturing capacity in Fremont, California, into a line dedicated to humanoid robot production. Car production stopped in May. Tesla is delivering its final “Signature” versions of the S and X this month. On Tuesday evening, the German auto maker closed part of a Los Angeles highway to unveil its Mercedes AMG GT four-door coupe.
