Let's Do 60-130 in a Tesla P100D | Model X Review + Ludicrous Acceleration

At some point life changes, priorities change and things you once had you may no longer have, but there are some things you just can't give up, for me that would be performance. This is the Tesla Model X P 100 D. You can call it the fastest. production SUV on the planet, at least that's what they claim: it has electric motors that drive the front and rear wheels, generating the equivalent of seven and sixty-two horsepower, which seems like a million pounds of torque, but It doesn't end there and just below. fifty-six hundred pounds weighs as much as my Tundra, but somehow it seems like it can handle better than my 535, that's because most of the weights are low to the ground thanks to the batteries, but somehow the ride is as comfortable enough for even the most scrutinizing. humans, the steering is quite direct, there is only one gear and it runs exclusively on electricity, it is absolutely silent in the cabinet, the forward visibility is amazing thanks to the panoramic windshield, the seats have adequate lateral support, but I'm not messing around with driving times turn up on this thing.

Unlike the

model

three there is actually a dashboard but still no head up display, the cabin is pretty simple, no fancy buttons or switches just a giant screen that controls every aspect of the experience, it's like driving a iPad, a really fast iPad, it's about time you do those

acceleration

tests, but the key here is to remove every gram of weight to achieve the fastest numbers, which means a little one has to sit, we already know the basics 0 -60 and 2.9 seconds and a quarter mile of 11.3 at 118 miles per hour are impressive by any standard, but today we're going to test rolling six to 130 the gold standard of real-world

acceleration

to see where it compares.

Tesla has been taking a beating and everyone from a standstill but I want to see what happens when you take it out of its comfort zone so here we are and to get the most out of the car in a straight line you need to make sure the batteries are at the right temperature and then just activate ludacris+ mode by going into the driving menu and holding the ludacris plus button for a few moments and then you will be instantly teleported to a star wars movie where you can launch your ex fighter like this, just a quick disclaimer of responsibility as part of the new real life zero to 16. and I'm doing 0 to 100 tests, I didn't activate launch control, so don't panic when you see a time a little slower than what you're used to, but The times I got were worth three point three two and eight point five. three seconds respectively, the time of 4,100 reached six point zero two seconds, which is three tenths of a second faster than the performance of

model

three.

I was honestly hoping for a faster time, but it could just be the weight on the resistance that slows it down at the top. -Finally, that's immensely impressive for a three-row SUV. Here's the only test that anyone has really done of six, two at 1:30 and at Tesla I was surprised that I was able to achieve a respectable time of twelve point eight eight seconds and they seemed slow, but because the car only has one gear and We know that electric motors tend to lose power at the top, and the fact that this is a three-tonne SUV isn't bad at all, but let's just know that the Tesla will lose to a well-driven finish. competition or some of these other fast cars in a race up to 130, it's good to know that the Tesla is not an unbeatable monster.

One thing to keep in mind is that when you activate ludacris plus, the car needs time to warm up the battery. to the optimal temperature and that can take thirty to fifty minutes and then there is a cool down after running at one thirty that could take up to ten minutes, but you can still ride in normal ridiculous mode and only lose about two tenths of second in terms of accelerations in 100 another note is that if you do the races with less than eighty percent load you will also lose another two tenths of a second at one hundred as a reference, our fastest Toms are done with a little more than ninety percent of charge, so while they are fast there are quite a few variables to consider when you compete in Tesla they have their kryptonite at the end of the day there are many things I like about the Tesla Model This isn't that sports car that makes you want to get up at five in the morning and experience a back road you've never driven;

After all, it's an SUV, sure acceleration can be exciting for the driver, but it can also be nauseating for passengers, but there's no shortage of grip thanks to the all-wheel drive system. It can stand firm on all frames and curves. The adjustable air suspension is super stylish. You can go from off-road ready to crash. matter of seconds, that's just the icing on the cake, what this car really is is the ultimate utility family vehicle. The Falcon doors make loading rear occupants easy, and the option of six heaters creates easy access to the third row and there is more than enough cargo space.

Both front and rear, the overall cabin design language is simple but intuitive and when I finally learned to trust the autopilot, I was surprised how I lived without it, especially when commuting in the New York metropolitan area. York, like I said there. There's not much I don't like about the car. I'll be honest, it doesn't win any beauty contests, it's kind of one size fits all and the P 100 II looks almost identical to the base 75 d, but the truth is that I want to buy one, the only thing stopping me is its price of $125,000 . There are other cars I'd rather buy for that kind of money the first time on the channel.
