The Tesla Model S Plaid is one of the fastest accelerating cars on the market. In fact, in the absence of confirmation of the records received from Rimac, we are facing the most agile model in the industry. And yes, we are talking about a saloon with more than two tons of weight. The presence of more than 1,000 CV of power and 3 electric motors allows this car to go from 0 to 100 km/ in just over two seconds. All this taking into account that it does not require any preparation! What would happen if substantial changes were made?
Today we want to show you the last record achieved by the modified Tesla Model S Plaid. It is a unit that is already famous within the firm by having multiple changes. The rear has been particularly redesigned to improve the drag coefficient. In the same way, substantial changes have been introduced with the aim of making the most of the sportier mode offered by this vehicle. What’s the score? It has broken all previous records.
The last feat of the “emptied” Tesla to break a new world record
Known for its incredible acceleration records, this Tesla is already famous on the Internet. From time to time, work is carried out to get a few hundredths of a second off the stopwatch. After all, he always faces the same test. The quarter mile, that is, the race in which you have to cover just 402 meters, has a great role in the United States. It is one of the most interesting competitions in the country, since it involves making multiple modifications to the car.
This “cast” Tesla has become the fastest in the world thanks to a whole series of modifications.
The previous record for this particular Tesla Model S Plaid was located at 8.733 seconds. The realization of a series of small changes has allowed us to improve this figure, leaving the new mark in just 8.714 seconds. This is an important advance, although the owners of the vehicle believe that there is still a small room for improvement. To achieve this new mark only two attempts were needed, so it is hoped that the record can be improved again.
According to the recent publication on the Instagram social network, it is believed that the car is already trained to be able to lower the result to 8.6 seconds. Over the next few weeks it is expected that this attempt can be carried out. For these purposes, it is important to note that this unit of the Tesla Model S Plaid bears very little resemblance to the production variant. After all, shortly after its acquisition it was decided to eliminate any detail that could add extra weight to the whole.
In order to understand to what extent the project has been worked on, it is enough to take a look at the use of the electrical tape present throughout the body. The role of its use lies in the coating of the joints to prevent the passage of air. In this way, the aerodynamic resistance is reduced to turn this car into a true missile. To understand the incredible potential of this car, you must know that, at the end of the test, He was traveling at a speed of 258 km/h.
