2021 Tesla Model S Plaid Review | Our Full Instrumented Test | Price, Range, 0-60 & More
Uploaded 3 years ago by Edmunds Cars
Video Summary
Here is a summary of the electric car review video that you provided:
The Tesla Model S Plaid has 1,020 horsepower from its three electric motors.
To prep the car for a sprint, “drag strip mode” must be selected, taking 7-13 minutes for cooling the motors and optimizing battery temperature.
The tested acceleration from 0-60 mph took 2.3 seconds, and the quarter-mile took 9.4 seconds at 150.8 mph.
The regular street surface used is more realistic and does not have spray for added traction.
The car stopped from 60 mph in 108 feet.
The car had a lateral grip of 1.06g on the skidpad.
The Edmunds tested EV range was 345 miles, under the claimed 348 EPA-estimated miles.
The tested consumption was 32.1 KWh per 100 miles, which is better than the Porsche Taycan 4S.
The large portrait screen has been replaced by a landscape format mirroring Model 3 and Y.
The steering wheel indicator buttons were difficult, because the left hand controls both left and right turns.
The build quality is not high enough, given the price.
The yoke is not a good idea and is only good for drag racing.
The Plaid has comfortable rear seats and reasonable legroom.
