I must admit this is one of the better videos of the model S Plaid that I have seen thus far on YT, your presentation was excellent throughout the video.

[AndrewNC]

I have been waiting for your review since the release and it was worth it. For me this is the best review of this car. It is not just the car or just the production values that bolster the effect - it is the symbiosis between the two that you are able make. Great car, great comments, great camera work, great setting, and ofc, great Autobahn.

[Arpedk]

I cannot believe it is finally in Europe, been waiting so long for this vehicles. We just haven't had a chance to understand just how quick the Tesla is compared to everything else. Insane!

Thanks for the video!

[sunilnijran]

I have seen so many reviews for this car but this has to be one of the best

[seb.]

Brilliant video again! Finally towing on the Model S, no need for SUVs anymore 👍
They just need to bring the quicksilver paint to this, and add a feature to raise the suspension when you open the door (if people want easier entry/exit), but at least you can already do that by location.

[m-ok-]

Scary thing is Tesla can still add a fourth engine to make it even faster.

[The-Rest-of-Us]

When a German tells you a movie is funny you better believe it because nothing makes them laugh.

[StandingUpForBetter]

Well done! The acceleration of this car is just next level. Wow! BTW ditto on Disney Star Wars.

[richardcomerford]

I noticed some of your comments concerning drive modes (P, R, N, D) and speed limit sign recognition might be effected by being a model released in the German market and a result of local regulations or software constraints. In the U.S. (where I am) the S will automatically choose which direction to move in without pressing a button or swiping on screen. Also, when driving in autopilot, my Tesla will adjust its cruise control speed to fit the current speed limit automatically.

“Holy moly…what the hell?” - I love your pure reaction Thomas!

[davehaller]

“I am not sure this should be legal” is a typical refrain. I have had my S now for a year and it’s the best car I have owned. The performance, the utility and the tech are best in class. The sound system is one of the best I have ever heard. I love driving it, sitting in it and looking at it.

[davehaller]

Thomas shows us that when the acceleration goes insane, he goes from German to American with the "Holy Moly" in about 2 seconds.

[michaelmara]

With great power comes great responsibility!

[mrsecondGT]

Always enjoy Thomas. Great presenter. Incredible attention to detail

[thomasjacques]

I was stationed at Rhein Main in the 70s and 80s and the first thing most Americans would do would get on the Autobahn and go as fast as they could in whatever car they were driving. And usually after a few seconds at top speed, they would naturally fall back to about 130 maybe 140 kph, and be happy. The accidents I saw were blood baths. Sometimes TOO MUCH is TOO MUCH.

[KC-kxuz]

Good to see your female companion back in a video acting as a visual/audio acceleration/G force meter for us viewers :D

[Markybug-Keira-Cody]

"im not sure if this should be legal " "is that a speed camera?" lol ! classic thomas !

[JuzzlinOSS]

We are now getting to the point where acceleration can be taken as a solved problem. There's not much left that can be done for passenger cars.

[NickKouidis]

Excellent presentation Thomas, always enjoying Autogefuhl!
The Model S, with computing power of ten (10) teraflops, has come long way through all these years. Still an upgrade on the brakes is needed I believe! The car has a low center of gravity and a long wheelbase, thus, the rear brakes work harder than a usual car. The regen is not always the best option and extra braking power is needed. So far the progress for Model S is impressive, remember some years ago, the harsh critics from the auto industry... and now the competition is running to meet the level of Tesla...
