Porsche owns the fastest lap time at Nurburgring with its 919 Hybrid Evo, which set the track record last year.

A Porsche Taycan Turbo prototype set a record in August for the fastest lap at the Nürburgring race track by a four-door electric car at seven minutes and 42 seconds. Tesla CEO Musk has suggested that the electric-car maker will at some point attempt to break that record with its Model S sedan. A Model S"Plaid" prototype drove on the track this week, clocking an unofficial time of about seven minutes and 20 seconds, according to Tesla.
