After the Tesla Model S won a drag race against a BMW M5 (F10), the Tesla Model S Performance left behind a Dogde Viper SRT10.
All critics of electric cars surrender, as this Tesla Model S Performance has come to dominate. After breaking the record for longest distance traveled with a single load (681 km), the Tesla Model S was still teaching the mighty BMW M5 (F10) a lesson and its more powerful version, the Tesla Model S Performance, left it behind a no less respected Dodge Viper SRT10. It is a fact that after 500 meters, both the BMW M5 and the Dodge Viper SRT10 would have started to fly by the Tesla Model S, but until then the tram leads. This “until there” means almost 200 km/h – yes, this Tesla Model S Performance leaves you behind at every traffic light, the only way to win the 0-100 sprint is to do it in less than 3 .9 seconds and we are already talking about decent numbers of supercars. The Tesla Model S Performance completed the 400 meters in 12,731 seconds, by which time the pointer already exceeded 178 km/h.
While its opponents consume all the money in their owners' pockets every time they press the accelerator, the Tesla Model S Performance passes silently, without spending a single cent of gas and just a few “changes” for the electricity at home. It makes you think, isn't it? As purist and car-loving as we are, Tesla is in for a bow. Keep the videos, seeing is believing!
