VIDEO: Tesla Drag Race! Model S vs. Model X In STUNNING Showdown

Looks pretty much the same.

By the way, I saw my first Model X in the NYC area yesterday. It had tags on it but it was on a flatbed truck on the Long Island Expressway in the Huntington area! Wonder what the issue was?

It was oddly proportioned and not handsome like the Model S.

Ironic.

Making a fast electric vehicle is not accomplishment. The torque characteristics of an electric motor make it a snap. The problem is obviously battery charge duration. Twenty years from now Charger Hellcats will still be charging, but like 20-year old PCs, no one will want today's electric technology.

If it wasn't an accomplishment, other manufacturers would have built their versions of the Model S by now. 20 years from, the Hellcat will look even more obsolete next to an old Model S. You can easily upgrade the battery on a Tesla, which will likely have battery options with much better range that are lighter and cost far less in 20 years. Good luck swapping out the engine on a Hellcat to something that is both faster and more efficient.

@SanJoseDriver and I'm sure you have a Bernie2016 bumper sticker on the back of your vehicle. You logic is vapid best. Other manufacturers HAVE DONE EVs. The Nissan Leaf is far more significant than the bloated-Fusion-looking Tesla. The reason the big manufacturers have not jumped in big time is that battery technology simply cannot do what an internal combustion engine can do.

In 20 years that gap will have been erased and the Tesla's current implementation will be laughable...assuming they still run.

Other manufacturers have done EVs?! The kind that completely trash every production dino juice guzzler?

See the moment you made this personal you lost the argument, not that you really had one. 100+ year old EVs still run on their original motor with their original wiring and rheostat. Edison Ni-Fe cells lasted decades, could be washed, refilled and used, what finally gave up on them was the bakelite containers SEVENTY years after they were made.

Unlike a IC auto, Tesla's are subject to "Moore's Law" (the observation that, over the history of computing hardware, the number of transistors in a dense integrated circuit has doubled approximately every two years).

So, just like your laptop or cell phone (or the sat nav system on your 10 year old car), these computer-powered electronic devices just stop being functional. Then they get discarded.

Old Tesla's will be recycled (hopefully - or else a whole bunch of toxic wbattery/electronics/heavy metals waste will be in our landfills), but they will definitely have a finite useful life, just like any electronic device.

The Charger Hellcat will be here 20 years from now, an old Tesla will be long recycled by then.

I think the IC car and engine are subject to Ford's law. The fact it is the same engine 90 years later is scary. No conspiracy here, look over there.

A 20-year old Tesla will be as desirable a 20-year old laptop computer or cell phone.

actually I see Tesla offering lighter batteries which will mean even faster cars with the same electric motor. Or more amps. Or both. So I will bet you $1000 that a 2016 Telsa will smoke your Hellcat in twenty years.

Musk is talking about their cars lasting 1 million miles. Tesla is looking to resell the same car a dozen times....
