Tesla claims some astonishingly quick acceleration times, and for some of us, testing and verifying those times are part of the fun. To do that, the drag strip is the only safe and fully reliable source for accurate numbers. In February of 2015, I migrated to a Model S Performance, after owning a 2013 Model S P85. As the weather turned supportive... Tesla Model 3 vs Model S: Tighter dragstrip times, sharper traction system

Tesla has not only put some of the world's longest-range electric cars into production, but its cars also happen to house some serious performance specifications. Everyone knows the P100D versions of the Tesla Model S sedan and Model X SUV are capable of accelerating at lightning speed, thanks to the instantaneous torque available at zero RPM from... 
For as long as there have been automobiles, drivers have had the itch to go faster than the guy in the next car.
