Can the Tesla Model S defeat its German counterparts in a drag race? Because of its incredible drag racing performance, the Tesla Model S has been an internet sensation for several years. The Tesla Model S has changed public opinion on EVs, transforming them from eco-friendly appliances into luxurious products that can be whipped up in a matter of seconds. But can Audi and Porsche get a share of the Model S market? If you don’t know, Audi and Porsche are both part of Volkswagen Group. This is a huge organization that has some of the most iconic brands in the world. The advantage of owning multiple brands is that you can amortize the costs associated with new product development across multiple product portfolios.
The Porsche Taycan drivetrain technology and the Audi RS E-Tron electrical vehicle are used in this case. Although there are subtle differences between the two products, it is easy to see how they differ in their driving experience. This is okay because the styling differences alone are enough for both these new EVs to exist. Although the Porsche Taycan Turbo is powered by the same electric motors, the Audi RS E-Tron GT’s power output is different. The Porsche Taycan produces 687 horsepower (512 Kilowatts), while the Audi RS E-Tron GT only manages 647 horsepower (482 Kilowatts). The branding hierarchy is what causes this power gap.
The Tesla Model S Performance is Tesla’s top dog and does not have to deal in branding politics. The Model S Performance produces a staggering 778 horsepower (580 Kilowatts), making it the most powerful car on the market. Which EV luxury sedan is the best on the drag strip? Let’s find the answer.
