Tesla has never done a model refresh or redesign. They are still building out their base offerings.

Per industry standards the S should have been redesigned in 2017 and the X is due in 2020. It would make a whole lot of sense to redesign them together and put them on the same platform. They should be sharing way more part content.

That said with the New Roadster, Y, and Semi I doubt they have the resources to release a new S and X in the next few years.
