Tesla Model S Plaid Versus Porsche Taycan: Matchup Expected Next Week

And Motor Trend is expected to conduct the testing.
Rumors suggest that the Tesla Model S Plaid will go up against the Porsche Taycan as soon as next week. Motor Trend will conduct the testing of the matchup we've all been waiting for. Will the hottest Tesla ever come out on top? Or will it be the Taycan that triumphs?

The specs for the Plaid version of the Model S are unknown, but what we do know is that Tesla will actually offer this hot Model S to the public starting in October or November 2020. Ahead of that, it seems Tesla wants to show just how capable the car is and, as such, is sending one to Motor Trend to pit it up against the Taycan (presumably the Turbo S variant).

Tesla promised to improve the Plaid before returning to the Ring, so we assume some further upgrades have been implemented since then. If so, the Model S Plaid should be able to take down the Taycan in the Motor Trend matchup, but that's not a given.

We're extremely excited about this matchup. Word of it leaked out onto Reddit (link) and, if true, it should be on everyone's radar as something to keep an eye out for. Will the Plaid Tesla take top honors or willl the Taycan capture the crown? Guess we'll have to wait and see.

Er mest spent på prisen på Plaid. Det er lettere å lage en bil til 2 mill enn 1 mill.

Den skal vel tydelig opp i pris fra dagens Model S/X har jeg skjønt signalene fra Elon korrekt.

Greit nok. Blir jo en upraktisk bil da den er bredere og enda vanskeligere å parkere enn dagens S/X. Så uaktuell for meg uansett pris.

Matche Tesla Plaid  prototype med  Taycan i produksjon ? Neste blir  teslaprototype mot Taycan II prototype eller Plaid II prototype mot Taycan III prototype

Og slik går nå dagan...

Porsche brukte en prototype til å sette rekord på ringen. Så ingen som kverulerte på det.

Men det beste er såklart å ta produksjonsmodeller, er enig i det. Nå er slike sammenligninger mest for PR og da vil det ikke være rent vitenskaplige forhold.

Om noen setter Porsche 918 opp mot Aston Martin Vulcan ville du synes det var like ille Tellus?
