What’s faster in a dr
...
ag race… a Formula 1 car or a Tesla Model S P100D?
Note: The Moose test was not to official spec, meaning the speeds are higher than official results.
Tesla’s are known all over the internet for their incredible torque - and for beating tried and tested cars in drag races. But the ultimate test is against an F1 car.
What better way to launch our new YouTube channel than to drag race a Tesla and a Formula One car?
We run these two cars through four challenges: a standing quarter-mile, a rolling quarter-mile, 0-100-0mph acceleration and brake test and finally, our favourite, the Moose Test.
The Tesla P100D has 500kW (671 hp) and 701 lb-ft of torque. It is all-wheel-drive and can accelerate to 62mph in 2..7 seconds - reaching a top speed of 155 mph.
This Formula 1 car is a V10 Benetton with 770 hp. It only weighs 525kg, so the power-to-weight ratio is in fact higher than a modern F1 car at 1466 hp/ton. Safe to say, it’s very fast!
