Are all Tesla Model S’ AWD?

I am considering purchasing a Tesla Model S but don’t know which submodel I should go with, as I want to ensure that it has all-wheel drive. Are all Tesla Model S’ AWD?

Reviewed by Shannon Martin, Licensed Insurance Agent.
No, not all Tesla Model S’ are AWD, though nearly all Model S vehicles built after 2014 either offer an all-wheel drive version as an option or come standard with Tesla’s dual-motor all-wheel drive system.
If you are unsure whether your current Tesla Model S has AWD or want purchase an all-wheel drive Tesla Model S in the future, look out for any configuration that ends in the letter “D,” as this signifies it is the all-wheel drive version.
Electric vehicles aren’t cheap, and due to their complex parts they are also more expensive to insure—fortunately,

How long does it take for alcohol to leave your system before driving?
After I’ve had a few drinks, I usually feel safe to drive after an hour, but I don’t know if that’s a long enough time to wait. I think I’m fine to hit the road because I don’t feel tipsy, but I don’t know how law enforcement decides if someone is drunk. How long do I have to wait for the alcohol to leave my system before I can drive?
