The Tesla Model S and Model X come standard with Bioweapon Defense Mode, which is possible due to a massive HEPA filter. If you haven’t seen it or replaced it, you’re likely to be shocked by its size.

There’s a pretty good chance that going out in your car is not going to make you highly susceptible to contracting the coronavirus, but we’re not doctors.
