Watch Tesla Model S Drag Race 770 HP V10-Powered Formula One Car
Does the electric sedan even stand a chance against one of the world’s quickest racing cars?
In order to give you an idea of just how quick electric cars accelerate off the line even compared to the quickest ICE vehicles in the world, check out this Tesla Model S versus Formula 1 car drag race. No matter how much power and grip the F1 car has, the Tesla can still put more power down and it shoots off the line way quicker than the racer.
And you’re probably saying to yourself that the F1 car had no chance because it is only rear-wheel drive, but the test was performed on a grippy drag strip. Furthermore, the grippy full slick tires fitted to the racing car go a long way to help it put the power down, but the driver points out that he still had trouble putting the power down as he observed the Tesla pulling away from it off the line.
