Philip Engberg created just the perfect comparison graphic, comparing 0-60 mph, 1/4 mile, power and price (USD). So how does Tesla compare to the latest entry from Audi? Let’s see who wins each category below:
0-60 mph: Model S Plaid+
1/4 mile: Model S Plaid+

As Engberg says, “Tesla keeps the bragging rights.” At the end of the day though, consumers win as we see some more competition in the performance EV space, providing more options for the market.
