The Tesla Model S 70 officially becomes the first car to offer DLC, which, if customers are willing to shell out extra bucks, should allow them to unlock a bigger battery pack that will aid them in longer, high-speed driving adventures.

Tesla Model S 70 units sold in the past month appear to have 70 kWh batteries at the outset. What buyers did not know is that a 75 kWh upgrade has always been available but was hidden by a software Tesla installed on the car.

Tesla only decided to talk about the feature a month after the Tesla Model S 70 units eligible of the upgrade were sold to customers, effectively surprising customers.

For $3000, owners of eligible Tesla Model S 70 cars can access the larger battery pack wirelessly. This should bump up the range of their vehicles with 15 miles per charge.

There's no need for owners to drive their Tesla Model S 70 cars to Tesla dealers to get the update, unless, of course, they want the logo on their car battery to accurately display the specs of the battery pack on the vehicle.

Tesla believes that being able to upgrade over the air proves beneficial to both the company and customers. On Tesla's end, they will no longer need to manufacture separate 75 kWh battery packs.

As for the customers, they are given the choice to upgrade their Tesla Model S 70 to an S 75 without hassle and whenever they want to. Tesla's innovation is lauded for its stress-free method and its originality.

Upgrading a car has always been imagined as physical but for such upgrade like the one on the Tesla S Model 70 made possible through software, Tesla has introduced a new innovation.

This move isn't unprecedented though, since Tesla already tried its hand on car DLCs or software updates on the Tesla Model S with 40kWh battery, which was upgradable to 60kWh over the air for $8,500.

As for customers interested to avail of the Tesla Model S 70 with the 75 kWh software, here's what a spokesperson of the brand told The Verge.

"We will continue to offer the 70 kWh energy option at but we will no longer produce the packs; a decision that is the most efficient for Tesla and the most beneficial for our customers."
