Not just Model S:
"We have only been able to verify our attack on a Tesla Model S in practice. However, Tesla did not design this system themselves but purchased it from Pektron. ... Pektron also designed keyless entry solutions for manufacturers such as McLaren, Karma and Triumph. ... This leads us to believe that the attack described here also affects the other manufacturers."
