How fast is the new Tesla Model S Track Plaid?

Published 2024-05-19
Today we headed out to Dragway 42 to test our brand new 2024 Tesla Model S Track Plaid with a number of high Vehicle Performance Value vehicles. These included C8 Stingray,C8 Z06, Porsche Carrera T, Dodge Hellcat, and two super bikes (Kawasaki H2, Ducati V4 R) courtesy of my good friend 650IB. So, how fast is a new Tesla Model S Track Plaid? Just ask the drivers and riders of the vehicles that came to play!

Watch and judge for your self what this machine is capable of when its not even fully charged, time did not allow for battery peak performance levels to ever be reached on any run, and we had zero experience with launching the car. Mind blowing!

    Yeah you really don't know how to drive Model S plaid :( it should be 9.2 flat every time !! Next time PLEASE use launch mode, and make sure performance is ready for this kind of events !!!!!!!!!
  • @sorka95032
    Your cheating yourself out of a few tenths by not starting in the lowest suspension setting and using launch mode which lowers the car even more. The current software cuts some power on launch to protect the front cv joints unless you use launch mode.
  • That h2 is the fastest thing there, bikes usually aren't setup for a hard dig because the just wheelie to much

    Low 9 second out the box Incredible Like seriously how much faster will these street driven cars get ? Roads aren't setup for this kind of acceleration hahaha
  • @sorka95032
    The Plaid never came close to a 157 at exit.
  • @mholmes9262
    Is that 157mph for real?? I’d expect to see a lower time than 9.4, considering the Sapphire is cracking into the 8’s and not hitting 157.
  • @bobholland9924
    Put somebody in the plaid that knows how to drive the damn thing its able to do 9.2 all day long and 9.19 in the summer .
  • @racingsfun
    Plaid doing 157mph. I think thata a timing error
  • @sasukesuite1
    My grandma could launch that Plaid better than the driver. This video is disrespectful to all the Plaids out in the world.
