It’s the drag race you’ve all been waiting for - the Tesla Model S Plaid vs the Lucid Sapphire. And while you may have seen these two drag racing before, we guarantee you haven’t seen anything like this, because we’re taking these two super sedans - all 2284 horsepower of them - through a full half mile. ➡️ www.motortrend.com/reviews/20...
In addition, we did full instrumented testing on both cars, measuring their 0-60, 0-100, 1/4 mile and 1/2 mile times. We also did 60-0 braking tests, before taking the Tesla and the Lucid out on to the streets, to find out if either of these neutron-powered rocketships are actually any good to drive.

    • Brooks, Track Mode wouldn’t accelerate as quickly as the Dragstrip mode does. Yes, it will hit the speed limiter sooner but I don’t think it hit it until immediately before the half mile line. Track Mode might not have helped at all here. They might have been going slower than 163 mph by the half mile in Track Mode because it doesn’t accelerate as quickly.

    • @@sudeeptaghosh In latest quarterly report Lucid had just over $4.7 Billion in cash and investments. At the burn rate of the past year that is enough to last them until Spring '25 without any sales. However, the main factory is nearing completion and Lucid's new 3-row SUV enter production later this year (Americans buy SUVs, not Sedans). Lucid's controlling shareholder, the Saudi PIF, has about a $Trillion in assets and can get more from Saudi Aramco if needed. Cash for future expansion is not an issue. I am not sure how the "going bankrupt" story got started but it has been propagated by EV haters and Tesla fans who feel threatened. FWIW many said the same about Tesla for its first 10 years.

They used an OLD S. The head and tail lights changed in late 2022. Why put out the video? Lost a lot of credibility with this one. Why not compare the Plaid with the GT, which is much closer in price. I know why - because the Plaid trashes it in all respects. They complain about handling, but didn't bother adjusting the torque vectoring option in the Plaid. Terrible video all around.

On a windy road, I would never trust a Tesla to function in an emergency situation if I have to brake while turning a blind corner, for instance. Bad handling isn't just an enthusiast problem, it's a safety problem. A car that's properly balanced in all its inputs - steering, brake, and accelerator - and therefore handles well is also a safer car because it won't do anything you don't tell it to do.

  • Sapphire's price of 2.8 Model S Plaids makes it kind of a joke. Anybody can do incredible things with that kind of money. Sapphire is an academic exercise that will never have any production relevance. Why don't you guys compare the AMG E63 to a Honda Accord next time?
