During validation of Model S roof crush protection at an independent commercial facility, the testing machine failed at just above 4 Gs. The exact number is unknown due to the fact that the Model S broke the testing machine, meaning that at least four additional fully loaded Model S vehicles could have been placed on top of the car without the roof caving in.
Apart from the Mercedes-Benz 300SL of the mid-1950s and the experimental Mercedes-Benz C111 of the early 1970s, the best-known examples of road-cars with gull-wing doors are the Bricklin SV-1 from the 1970s, the DMC DeLorean from the 1980s, and the Tesla Model X of the 2010s.
Tesla said that by June 2015, Model S cars had traveled over 1 billion miles, the first plug-in electric car to reach that milestone.

All Tesla vehicles are produced at its factory in Fremont, California, where the vast majority of the vehicle's components are also made.
