EVERY fast Tesla: DRAG RACE

SIX Teslas in a drag race line-up? You better believe it!

We’ve got our hands on every performance version of the Model S and Model X. From the P100D through to the Plaid, these are the six quickest Teslas money can buy. The question is, just how different is their performance?

Let’s start with how they compare on paper. The Model S P100D rolls up with dual motors that combine to produce 671hp and 950Nm of torque. It tips the scales at around 2,100kg. As for the Model X P100D, its two motors combine for 534hp and 755Nm, and it’s a fair bit heavier than the Model S, weighing in at around 2,500kg.

Then we have the Ravens. Both come with dual motors, and both the Model S & Model X produce 778hp and 1,140Nm. However, while the Model S weighs 2,255kg, the Model X comes in at 2,552kg.

Then finally we have the Plaids. Both cars have ti-motors, and both produce 1,020hp and 1,420Nm. But just like the Raven, while the Model S weighs in at 2,190kg, the Model X is a whole lot heavier, coming in at 2,464kg.

So it comes as no surprise as to who the favourite is, but just how different will the performance of these cars be? There’s only one way to find out… LET’S RACE!

Thanks to everyone for lending us their cars:

One of the loudest silent races ever😅 (mainly because of the wind...)

The big hero 6 stickers on Nick’s Tesla is genius 😂

[ChunkyBBW]

I love how can clearly see the development in Tesla through the ages based on the results

[Daniel_Anthony]

7:50 "This car wow!"

You know the producers loved that

[RichardFer]

Tesla is one of the few cars where 500 HP is considered to be a bit "slow" compared to the rest... 😅

Yanni with 'my neck, my back' cracked me up BIG TIME 😂😂😂

Not bad for 7 years of refreshes between the p100d and plaid.

The difference is in performance is huge

2:40 "Uhh Nick what's the weight of your ex?" "that is 2552 kilograms"😂

Experienced the p100d back in 2018 and it felt insane. Will need to do another test drive with the plaid now

When I saw line up of Teslas I was waiting for the customary Carwow sound check… disappointed 😂

Only Matt can turn a 7 second drag race into a 22 min video

Rory hit the nail on the head, the first gen P100d S was almost painful to be in off the line when it was released, so the contrast with the Plaid S is remarkable! Great vid guys!

The "my neck my back.." bit from Yianni 😂

[antesimic]

Lucid air sapphire vs Tesla model S plaid vs new Porsche Taycan Turbo GT! Next 😀

[producermathew]

I see the Model X Plaid that Matt Watson is in nearly every day at work. Madness, what a small world haha!

[housepianist]

The thing with this race is that the “slowest” Tesla (P100D) can outperform most any modern car on the road today. E-power!

16:24 - when i was Circuit Racing, i used a product called 'Rain-X' (comes in a little yellow plastic bottle) and after 2 applications, once you go above 10mph you *NEVER* have to use your wipers, ever.
Providing you don't wash it off with your screenwash, or swipe it off with the wipers sweep, it lasts, and lasts, and last
Awesome product - I can't recommend it highly enough

[pholeon]

This is the biggest demonstration of LOVE from Mat to Yianni, to give him the fastest car <3

[MrFOXTEiN]

Richard saying the partially peeled off fender lip is within tolerance litterally had me 🤣

[sujithkanna]

2:27 i thought it was a ghost in the passenger seat
