Tesla Model S P100D

The Tesla Model S P100D reaches 60 mph in 2.82 s and covers a standing quarter mile in 11.18 s, tripping the lights at 121.3 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 1.62 s and the eighth mile in 7.10 s, reaching 100 mph in 7.39 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Pick who it runs against, then watch it happen — and change the surface, the weather or the distance and run it again.

About the Model S P100D

The 2016 Tesla Model S P100D is an all-wheel-drive electric car of 2,219 kg with 680 bhp, which works out at 306 bhp per tonne. With full torque from a standstill it clears the first 60 ft in 1.62 s, and the question for an electric car is usually not the launch but whether it keeps pulling: it trips the quarter-mile lights at 121.3 mph. Against the 2,929 cars in the set it is the 159th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest tenth, and the 2nd quickest of the 13 Teslas here. It leaves better than it pulls: 121.3 mph at the lights is only the 471st highest here, so its 0-60 flatters what it does further out. The simulation is trimmed to 8 of 10 published acceleration figures for this car.

Picked for a fair race, not just a matching 0-60: pace, power-to-weight and body shape all count, and at most one is from the same maker.

11.18 s at 121.3 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 7.10 s and clears the first 60 ft in 1.62 s.
How much power does the Tesla Model S P100D have?
680 bhp and 2,219 kg, which is 306 bhp per tonne. It is all-wheel-drive, electric, with 1 gears and a quoted top speed of 262 km/h.
What cars are comparable to the Tesla Model S P100D?
Closest here on pace: Porsche Taycan Sport Turismo GTS facelift (2.86 s), Porsche Taycan GTS Facelift (2.75 s), Audi RS6 Avant GT (2.87 s). Each one can be raced against the Tesla Model S P100D in the panel at the top of this page.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Tesla Model S P100D is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 8 of its 10 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Figures regenerated 2026-09-01. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
