How do you like the new Tesla Model S? Really the fastest and the best car, how does Elon Musk present it?

The official presentation of the fastest version of the Tesla Model S electric car in the Plaid specification made it possible to understand what changes the car has undergone, and not all of them are aimed only at improving speed characteristics. The EV gets a new interior, a more efficient powertrain with increased charging rates, and an on-board entertainment system that rivals gaming consoles.

The electric car approaches the speed limit of 100 km / h in 1.99 seconds, and covers a quarter mile (402 meters) distance in 9.23 seconds at a speed of 248 km / h.

The power plant based on three electric motors at the peak produces a total power of 1,020 horsepower. As Elon Musk explained during the presentation, in order to improve the torque characteristics of electric motors, it was necessary to develop a technology for coating the copper winding of the rotor with carbon fiber.

At the level of traction batteries, improvements in the Tesla Model S Plaid are also provided, but this was not given due attention at the presentation. The drag coefficient of the body has been reduced to 0.208, the lowest among a production vehicle.

High-speed charging has also been improved, now the Tesla Model S is capable of replenishing 300 km of energy in fifteen minutes. In the coming months, Tesla will be able to produce a thousand Model S Plaid cars per week, but for now, production volumes are limited to a few hundred units per week. The car is available for order on the Tesla website at a price of $ 129,990 excluding additional options.
