Die-hard fans of fossil fuel guzzlers might even argue that the supercars are older in design and do not have access to rapid accelerations of electric motors. So, the best way to test the Tesla Model S is to pit it against an all-electric supercar.
For starters and in all fairness, the Plaid looks stronger on paper with a 1050 horsepower engine output, promising a 0-100 km/h acceleration in 2.1 seconds. In comparison, the 750 horsepower output of the Porsche Taycan can reach the 0-100 km/h mark in 2.8 seconds. But the Taycan isn't just a slow starter. It struggles for speed as well. At its best, the Taycan tops at 161 miles per hour whereas the Plaid goes all the way to 200 mph .
Add the extra weight that the Porsche is carrying for its 5300 pounds structure while the Plaid is under the 5000-pound mark at 4833 pounds to it and you will get an electric car that gets crushed not once or twice, but three times in a row. That must've hurt.Palm Beach International Raceway in Florida, Tesla Model S Plaid came on top, every single time.
