The new Tesla-one is the world’s fastest production car – Tu.no

It may well be that Tesla felt to remind people that they not only have the goal of making the electrical middle wagon Model 3. The stock, after all, also luxury sedans and -SUV’s with a lot of horsepower.

for the magnitude surprise they launched yesterday Model S and Model X with 100 kWh battery. Tesla has been conceived with this battery capacity has been known since March.

11 percent more battery

This increases Tesla battery capacity by 11 percent, so that electric cars that had already long range may take another few mil.

But it’s not really reach this is all about.

For the Tesla focuses on that is that the Model S P100D is the world’s fastest production car.

History third fastest

With an acceleration from zero to 100 km / h in 2.7 seconds, the Model S now faster than brutal, mass-produced supercars as the Ferrari 488, Porsche 991 GT3 RS and McLaren 12C and has the same acceleration such as McLaren 650S.

without burning as much as a single hydrocarbon, in a five-door sedan where there is room for five adults and two children.

Even says Tesla that Model S P100D is the world’s third fastest production car ever, but that LaFerrari and Porsche 918 Spyder, which is faster cars to over a million dollars, with room for two people.

Model X P100D is not any snail right. It takes you to 100 km / h in 3.1 seconds.

New battery Pack

Everything is possible with the new battery pack, using the same cells as previously, but has new architecture, cooling and electronics.

Those who already have a Model X or Model S with 90 kWh battery can upgrade, but since the battery must be physically replaced, it becomes an expensive affair.

Those who have ordered but not taken delivery, the Model S or X P90D, can upgrade to 100 kilowatt hours.

Norwegian prices not known

Norwegian prices were not disclosed, but in a blog post writes Tesla that upgrades will cost respectively 20 000 and 10 000 US dollars (164 000 and 82 000).

We have the time of writing got some Norwegian prices for new editions of P100D, or upgrade. Tesla Norwegian communications manager, Even Sandvold Roland, say they expect that prices and reservations will be available soon.

Considering that a top specified Model S or X P100D costs in excess of 1.1 million, it is nevertheless hardly any big price jumps for those who basically can afford to spend such a sum on a car.

613 km

the scope of the new varieties are available to 613 km for the Model S, and 542 km of Model X. This is NEDC figures, who all agree that is in excess optimistic.

to get the wild performance numbers have cars ordered with Ludicrous mode. Model X P90D with this mode makes from before 0-100 km / h in 3.4 seconds, while the Model S does the same in 3 seconds flat.
