Tesla cars are very good at drag races and have buried a few supercars in a straight line but what about the Model 3 up against the new Porsche 911 Carrera S?
CarWow got the two together to have some fun at the drag strip and the results are quite surprising.
Without giving away too much, let’s look at the numbers.
The Tesla Model 3 Performance packs dual electric motors on each axle with a combined output of 490 hp (366 kW) and 660 Nm of torque. It has no gearbox and is able to hit 60 mph (96 km/h) in just 3.2 seconds. The 911 Carrera S produces 450 hp (336 kW) and 530 Nm of torque sent to the rear wheels via an 8-speed dual-clutch auto. It is a bit lighter though and can sprint to 60 mph in 3.5 seconds.
