Elon Musk has taken the Porsche Taycan challenge very seriously, on the famous German Nurburgring track where Tesla is there with two prototypes of Model S, in order to "break" the time achieved by the first purely electric Porsche model, stopping the Timers at 7:42,34.
According to information, the American company's record effort will be made today and on Saturday, with German Auto Motor und Sport reporting that it timed in yesterday's tests that Model S completed the round in 7 minutes and 23 seconds, i.e. almost 20 Seconds faster than Taycan.
The prototype S that are tested in the "Ring " wear a spoiler and special tires, while new ones are Plaid electric motors. In total it has three, instead of two bearing the current model, two on the rear axle and one on the front. This setup will be placed on the October or November 2020 in the Model S, model X.
The following is video from YouTube channel Motor Authority, showing the Tesla Model S Plaid in action on the Nurburgring track.
