DragTimes recently was able to spen some time with the all-new, red Tesla Model S Plaid at the Orlando Speedway drag strip and record full performance tests.

When put in Drag Strip Mode, the car quickly reported that it is ready for the job so the team was able to conduct multiple runs.

The times were very good, including 1/4 mile in 9.248 seconds at 150.65 mph in the second run. That’s just 0.001 s behind Jay Leno’s record.

We listed the results from the video below, but please take note that some include rollout (like the best 0-60 mph time in 2.01 seconds). The Dragy appears to report a true 0-60 mph time around 2.21 seconds.

  • 0-60 mph (96.5 km/h) – 2.21 seconds
  • 1/8 mile – 6.03 seconds at 120.82 mph
