[http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2011/10/tesl.jpg](http://www.engadget.com/2011/10/04/tesla-model-s-to-get-faster-sport-edition-leave-sedan-in-the-du/) [Tesla](http://www.engadget.com/tag/tesla/) looks set to offer another slightly more aggressive, slightly faster model alongside its [Model S](http://www.engadget.com/2011/03/07/tesla-model-s-pricing-and-delivery-details-confirmed/) sedan [pictured]. The high-performance, zero-emission (and tentatively-named) Model S Sport packs a larger battery, extending its single-charge range to 300 miles. *Green Car Reports* adds that it'll even get optional aerodynamic wheels adding another 20 miles to the car's range. Acceleration has also been boosted, with 0 to 60MPH cut to under 4.6 seconds in the sporty upgrade. This should be the perfect vehicle for evading capture in the gasoline-poor [robopocalyptic](http://www.engadget.com/tag/Robopocalypse/)future. The Sport is reportedly set to launch alongside the standard Model S next year.
