Good to hear your thoughts on the Plaid …

Tesla has spent a lot of time and effort honing the dynamics at a development centre at the Nürburgring.


The Model S Plaid set official the world speed record for a production electric car at Nürburgring. The version tested was unmodified. 

I placed my order around 12 months ago and look forward to posting a review here when it arrives. 

In the meantime …

Yes, nothing else compares on 2 or even 4 wheels. It even handles well. I got it up to 240 so fast my rather timorous friend was shocked. I believe that this one is a serious game changer, forget any other overpriced supercar you have driven. It would giv...

Fast, bit aesthetically and acoustically boring.

Also for this kind of money, I am disappointed with a rather simple and spartan interior.

For the Porsche Taycan Turbo ... and go slower ;-) I have tried the Porsche and the 800 hp Tesla Performance (Plaid not yet available here) and indeed the Porsche is in another league ... but considering the 220.000 vs 100.000 € price tag it better should...

And for one tenth of the price you can get another one that’s ten times more fun than the Tesla 🤣

85 hp for 775 kilos … Front has 760 EV hp … for 2500 kilos 🤢 offcourse you can’t deny the sheer performance.

Although i’m dreaming of modifying my 205 into a hybrid. Adding a Rimac type battery of 40kwh and one Rimac 500 hp motor … should keep the weight at around 1100 kilos if a make some carbon doors 😅. A 585 hp 205 would be fun.

True, not the revolution I was expecting

A friend has one and whilst some of the features are useful, I still can't get my head around having a TV in the car! Totally unnecessary in my opinion. For the price, it looks and feels cheap.

Exactly my feeling.

I will add my thoughts. If you can afford a McLaren or similar and don't like the interior, take the shell of the car, redesign and put in a proper interior. Watching the Nurburgring video reminds me how heavy these cars are and weight is the enemy of all...
