hi everyone matt watson here from car
wow i'm sat in a tesla
model s performance and next to me is a
porsche
tycan turbo s this is the drag race
we've all been waiting for what is going
to happen let me know in the comments
box below before you watch the race
see which car you're backing let me tell
you about this tesla dual electric
motors
combined they produce 825 horsepower
and 1 300 newton meters of torque
this thing is quite heavy though it
weighs 2
241 kilos price wise 105
000 pounds this car has all the latest
over the airwaves updates you can get on
it so it's the fastest
tesla model you can get right now that
porsche tycoon
it's also got dual electric motors and
combined they produce
761 horsepower and 1050 newton meters of
torque
so it's a little bit down on power it's
also up on weight it weighs
2295 kilos and it's more expensive than
the tesla
139 000 pounds if i tell you the truth
inside it does feel nicer than this
tesla but today it's all about the
performance which one is going to win

one we've been waiting for for so long
buying a new car head to car wow to get
offers from the uk's top dealers
car wow dot co dot uk the car buying
comparison site oh there's one thing
i've forgotten to do
a sound test so this is what a tesla
model s sounds like
now let's listen to the porsche tycan
turbo s
hmm all very peaceful now let's get on
with the drag race shall we
three two one
close off the line
[Applause]
i maybe could have done a slightly
better job but it ain't gonna count
it ain't gonna count
damn oh
[Music]
tesla fanboys burning in the comments
right now
wow that was a bigger difference than i
imagined to be fair
i think i was a little bit behind on the
launch i'm going to try again
we need this to be scientific
well as scientific as car wow gets let's
run it again
right the suspension isn't fully low
i'm now lowering it i know
the tesla fanboys would have picked up
on that and been
claiming foul it's in the low mode let's
do it
three two one
i beat them off the line this time
can he come past me come on tesla come
on
come on
no way no way
that's it suspension's low ludicrous
mode
latest software update better launch i
got the line
better i'm sure or at least it was neck
and neck
porsche beat the tesla for sure
[Music]
so then what exactly happened while the
porsche tycoon turbo s completed the
standing quarter mile in 10.3 seconds
while the tesla model s performance took
10.4 seconds
even with its latest cheetah stance
upgrade
now we're gonna take the launch at the
equation we're gonna do a rolling race
from 30 miles an hour
i'm gonna count it in three two
one go
oh this is almost split up its wheels
and it's got the edge on the porsche
what's happening
and now the porsche coming past 135
miles an hour
so low down whoa whoa
i thought i was gonna hit a bird low
down this responded a bit quicker
there is a slight delay because we're
over the radios and he's got respond to
me
saying things but oh that porsche came
past in the end
let's try something else looks like i'm
giving myself and the tesla
as many chances as possible so no one
can complain
what we're going to do now is the same
thing again but the porsche is going to
count us in
three two one go
this still did pick up a bit quicker
so that doesn't matter about who's
calling it in but
here comes the porsche yet again oh
over 130 it comes past let's just try
another thing well we've got the cars
why the heck not
we're going to the rolling race again
but this time from 70 miles an hour
after all that porsche is german so it's
probably set up for the autobahn so here
we go
70 miles an hour i'll count it in three
two one
go ah
at the top end the porsche
is superior
now interestingly this has a top speed
of 163 miles an hour which is one mile
an hour faster than the tycoon's top
speed
but it's still putting on me it does
mean though that if this runway
went on forever i would eventually catch
the porsche and go
past it but it doesn't go on forever
it stops here which means the tesla
got absolutely thrashed
still tesla as a company is worth way
more than porsche
i'm trying to keep you tesla fanboys
happy with something finally then
brake test from 70 miles an hour when we
reach the line full emergency stop which
will stop in the shortest distance here
we go
this pedal felt a bit squidgy
porsche does amazing brakes and both
these cars while they're braking were
capturing lost energy and putting it
back into the battery but the friction
brakes on the porsche are clearly
superior to those
on the tesla i mean look there's a big
difference but anyway here we go
answer the question wasn't sure what was
going to happen here
i was surprised by how much the thai can
is quicker than this actually i thought
it would be closer but there we go i
