The Tesla Model S Plaid has more power than the Ferrari and Porsche but it also weighs more, so which is quickest? car auto cars
, Porsche 911 Turbo S, and Tesla Model S Plaid to a non-car enthusiast and asked them which is quickest, chances are they’d say the Ferrari, followed by the Porsche and then the Tesla. However, the latest drag racing video put together by CarWow shows that this isn’t the case.
This test consists of three races, including a standing start drag race, a rolling drag race from 40 mph, and two brake tests from 100 mph. Given that the Model S Plaid is driven by three electric motors, it has a power advantage over the other two, churning out a remarkable 1,020 hp and 1,420 Nm of torque.By comparison, the SF90 Stradale delivers 986 hp and 590 lb-ft of torque from its combination of a 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 and three small electric motors.
In the first race, the Porsche actually got the best launch off the line, followed by the Ferrari and with the Tesla closely behind. As the speeds started to build, the Ferrari and Tesla began to pull away but it was the Italian supercar that took the victory. Things were different in the final two races. In the second, the Tesla easily out-accelerated the SF90, with the Ferrari even beaten byS.
Of course, these results aren’t a shock but will the Tesla prove to be so formidable in a rolling race and in the braking test? Watch on to find out.
