See Tesla Model S P100D set the fastest record in the world: going 402 meters takes 10.78 seconds

Tesla Model S P100D has set the fastest acceleration record in a quarter of a mile.

When Tesla announced the Model S P100D last August, Elon Musk boasted that it was the fastest car in the world. The Model S P100D deserves the title when it can accelerate from 0 to 96.5 km / h in just 2.5 seconds and complete a distance of 402 meters in 10.78 seconds.

For most car manufacturers, the Model S P100D represents an amazing achievement and requires no further improvement. However, Elon Musk not only wanted the car to have the championship speed, Tesla over the past few months worked hard to make the Model S P100D do more than just a " speed demon ".

Thanks to a recent software update, owners of the Model S P100D can now take advantage of Ludicrous + Mode to accelerate from 0 to 96.5 km / h in 2.4 seconds. Earlier this month, Musk also posted a tweet stating that the car could achieve above speed in a more impressive time of 2.34 seconds.

DragTimes conducted a Model S P100D test at the Palm Beach International Raceway in Florida and found that it ran through 402 meters in 10.72 seconds, which is better than the initial information provided by Tesla.

Below is a video of the 640HP Cadillac Model S P100D and Cadillac CTS-V 2017. At the end of the test, the Model S P100D set the record for the world's fastest 4-door sedan. The previous record is 10.76 seconds.
