Tesla Model S Plaid vs Bugatti EB 16.4 Veyron

Over a standing quarter mile on dry asphalt the Tesla Model S Plaid is the quicker car, covering it in 9.57 s at 145.9 mph against the Bugatti EB 16.4 Veyron’s 9.76 s — a margin of 0.19 s. To 60 mph the Tesla Model S Plaid takes 2.04 s and the Bugatti EB 16.4 Veyron 1.89 s.

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

Questions

Is the Tesla Model S Plaid or the Bugatti EB 16.4 Veyron faster?
The Tesla Model S Plaid. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 9.57 s to the Bugatti EB 16.4 Veyron's 9.76 s, a margin of 0.19 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 2.04 s against 1.89 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the Tesla Model S Plaid 0-60 time?
The Tesla Model S Plaid reaches 60 mph in 2.04 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 9.57 s at 145.9 mph.
What is the Bugatti EB 16.4 Veyron 0-60 time?
The Bugatti EB 16.4 Veyron reaches 60 mph in 1.89 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 9.76 s at 144.3 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The Tesla Model S Plaid trips the lights at 145.9 mph and the Bugatti EB 16.4 Veyron at 144.3 mph at the end of the quarter mile. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every time on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. Each car is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it matches its own published acceleration figures — 11 of 11 for the Tesla Model S Plaid and 11 of 11 for the Bugatti EB 16.4 Veyron. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
