    same time as a grand cherokee ahaha

    it also can't complete a single lap of the nurburgring, so i suspect a number of buses are faster.

    8:50 BTG, so basically somewhere around 9min20s full lap, depending on how much power is restricted (the missing chunk is a mile straight).

    Sabine Schmitz ran a Ford Transit van on top gear at 10min08s so clearly Tesla is faster than that, which makes it faster than a bus.

    The p100d is set to break the 4 door record next year btw. They are releasing new software that allows full power longer based on gps location, cooling system much improved and more battery.

    Not that anyone cares, couldn't get farther from real street driving. Maybe the baja 1000 ha

    A software update that improves nurburgring times by over 3 minutes you say?

    How about if the race was two laps?

    I love how he never breaks character. Even zenops can't commit to a gimmick like this.

    Fuck, you're right. As online writing goes, that last post of his was pretty damn acceptable.

    Source?

    EGT is trying to put together a series of race prepped Tesla P100Ds for a championship.

    Just like Tesla, 2017 came and went without it happening. They’re aiming for 2018 start now, with no confirmed dates.

    I think we should rename this thread to "2023 Tesla Roadster". https://driving.ca/auto-news/news/ne...2023-says-musk

    Also interesting they've revised the 1.9s 0-60 time up to 2.1s.

    Let's be honest, it's way funnier leaving it as 2020 as originally planned haha.

    I'm curious how Tesla is going to manage to make this as ugly as the rest of their cars. I trust them, though.

    The original roadster was the only good looking Tesla. I wonder why that is…

    After they got picked apart on Plaid's 1.9s claim by MT. Not surprised.

    Also, didn't the auto industry as a whole say they have no car to sale until 2023 anyway?
