Can A Ludicrous Model X With A Trailer Beat An Alfa 4C In A Drag Race?

When twin-testing a Model X with the Bentley Bentayga, the guys at Motor Trend found a creative way of putting the Tesla's performance in context...

While the genius drag race at around the four minute mark is what we’re focusing on here, the rest of the test is well worth a watch since it’s the usual top drawer stuff from Motor Trend. Want to read more about the Bentayga and Model X? Hit the links below.

Woah man… I’d still buy the 4C, but the Teslas are really the vehicles of the future…

The Alfa 4C is only has a 1750cc engine. I think its more about the bends and having fun. Alfa for me all the way.

The 4C driver knew he didn’t stand a chance when the Tesla went full Spaceballs mode and switched to LUDICROUS SPEED.

Exactly, the Tesla is only fast in a straight line & is great as a freeway cruiser. But, nothing can change the fact that it’s a heavy brick with no driving feedback. The Tesla is what it is, but a drivers car it is NOT.
