- When I flew in a Red Bull Aerobatic aeroplane I suffered from 'airborne Tourettes.'
In the Tesla Model S P85D 4 wheel drive twin engined brute going from zero to 60 mph in a fraction over 3 seconds I suffered from 'roadborne Tourettes' but it's been tactfully bleeped.
'Insane mode engaged, start cussing.'

"Zero to...to loose you licence"
EJ Tech maybe he means that it's so fast your licence comes loose ;)
lol great quote. For sure gotta get that police radar installed.
3:18 "There's a side of me that thinks people shouldn't have this bloody car" was a good throwback to the Dail Mail hype surrounding the 174mph Vauxhall-Lotus Carlton in 1990
"Ohh Ohh... I'm feeling dizzy! ohh I'm gonna be sick!! F%&&%&ÆÆØØØ!!!" Sir you are a legend! I love your videos!
😂 cracked me up
Hilarious. He's supposed to be pumping it up and he says..."but this? ...this is...Horrible...it's bloody TERRIFying"
FUCK YEA BRO I AM RECORDING RN BC OF THIS LMFAO
1:57 has got to be my favourite 'Insane mode' reaction to date! What makes this special is how genuinely shocked you seem, despite the anticipation. Plus it's usually the passenger soiling themselves, rather than the driver. Brilliant!
He used to live in a spaceship so he knows fast.
What the hell? That shit looks like you went into warp speed, straight out of a movie!
It's rare to see the side view of the P85D accelerating. That angle you showed really illustrates how insanely fast it accelerates. Love it!
Please do a carpool type thing with Elon Musk !
Vanilla Coffee I would also love to see that.
Vanilla Coffee He did one with Carlos Ghosn... I think that's as close as it gets!
A man can dream, though. A man can dream...
Yeah thanks just checked that one out, but would still much prefer seeing Elon Musk.

This car is unbelievable
Can I just say I bought my P85D about a year ago partially because of this video. One year later and all I can say is it still makes me grin from ear to ear.
Testing the P85D myself, back in Jan 25th this year in NYC, NY, I have to admit I had a similar experience and felt much like you did, only I had my wife & 14Y old daughter in the back seat, while a Tesla rep. was in the front passenger seat.
It literally took my breath away. I had the same noxious feeling, eye blur and had to get a good grip at the wheel to just hold my body from fully backing up into the seat because of the intense acceleration I was not really ready for.
Doing it again several times yet, helps your mind and body better prepared, so it lasts shorter.
I guess those who own it and experience this feeling several times are like jet pilots - they adjust to it completely.
It's a rush I'm more than to feel every day, if only it was possible to get a bank-loan for a one in Israel...
You deserve a lot more subscribers... The quality of your videos are amazing!
***** You are very kind, I've been running this channel for 5 years, but this year the subs have gone up very fast, about 1,000 new subs a week so something is finally working. Glad you enjoy the shows, there's lots more on the way
fullychargedshow One more subscriber, mate. Great videos. Keep it up!
***** Ditto!
***** Well that depends on what you are comparing to.. Im not complaining i like what this guy is doing but honestly im used to much better edited videos and better quality too.
fullychargedshow Just keep doing Model S acceleration upgrade videos and watch your subs skyrocket... This is enjoyed by many who can't afford one yet. :) Thank you Sir!
The key quote amongst his comical reactions is at 3:28: "It makes anything with an internal combustion engine just seem paltry, pathetic, old-school." The Audi RS, BMW M, Cadillac -V, Jaguar X*R, Lexus F-line, and Mercedes AMG performance divisions are officially all dinosaurs, on life support, walking dead, a collection of talented buggy-whip polishers.
skierpage The most amazing feeling in our Tesla is that snap of the neck when performing a pass at highway speeds, it's just so awesome and better than our previous 300HP Mercedes, at any speed, but especially on the highway!
skierpage 100% accurate
skierpage "a collection of talented buggy-whip polishers." Epic... Love it!!
Couldn't agree more with all... :)
skierpage not really. A Tesla can only do this once or twice, then it needs a cool-off period during which it has limited power. People tried to track test the model S, but it usually limits power after about a minute and a half due to overheating. To make a true performance track car, Tesla would need to improve the cooling very significantly, which would probably require a complete redesign. It is also far too heavy to qualify as a performance vehicle you can take out on track days. I think the 2019 brand new roadster will be the first true performance track car from tesla. Some would say the original roadster also qualifies, but again, I'm not so sure due to well-know cooling issues.
Christian Koncz I did wonder how a Tesla would do on a track circuit such as the 24 hour Le Mans... That would be very cool... as that race is truly about endurance and reliability of the machine. I would imagine the only challenge would be to develop the cooling system for those electrons high flow rate sustained throughout the race. Obviously the car would have to be built ground up for that specific purpose like most race cars are anyway... The battery swap would be key in such a race and the battery range would have to be matched to the tire range/change for max efficiency. It would be an interesting project of a Tesla Race Division which doesn't even exist... they're just swamped ramping up production of street cars for now... nor do they need marketing/public exposure, which is the main purpose of Racing (with R&D a fringe benefit) as manufacturers marketing their wares by means of arena "Entertainment"...
What is funny is that when I first saw this I was like.."okay whatever he is exaggerating, come on now". I got to test out a P85D with ludicrous mode and holy shit, it really is scary lol. The same feeling when you drop from the top of a roller coaster after climbing the tall hill is the same exact feeling when someone slams the pedal. Same exact feeling. I really thought people were exaggerating in these videos. Let me tell you it is absolutely nuts. You feel it like you are dropping downhill on rollercoaster.
this is better than the new top gear !😊😁😂
Changed my life test driving one of these....had exactly the same reaction!
That's precisely why Tesla has a grand total of ZERO dollars marketing budget. Those cars sell by themselves.
this is the best video from you ever, i'd say more enjoyable than any single scrapheap challenge. i think its so funny when you curse haha.
You need a camera operator to record some external shots of the acceleration etc :) looks pretty incredible.
This is my favourite fully charged episode. Love to watch it every now and then for a laugh.
Me too!
Love the wave to the Leaf driver at the start. Us poor saps. Thanks Robert.
Neil Mayo A few people have mentioned that, we had just been chatting with him at the motorway services charger, he was a very nice chap. That said, I have been know to wave at random Leaf's
Neil Mayo I also drive a Leaf, in fact, I drive my Leaf more often than the Tesla.
At 4.14 - you can see the rain water move across the window horizontally as it accelerates - the only other time I've seen that is on a plane at take off.
i love this guy so much :) This is my favourite tesla video yet...
Theres just something about a brit swearing and giggling like a maniac over those G forces that you cant deny is more amusing than kittens fighting in a basket!
***** I basically enjoy all of your output on here as either challenging, informative, entertaining or all of the above. On this occasion though, I would simply like to say, that's ******* brilliant.
Thank you :-)
Chris Auton That's very sweet of you, thanks, very glad you enjoyed it... and I survived the experience.
For all of those who don't know, this is Robert Llewellyn, a actor and TV presenter in the UK
Yaseen wow
Robert had to wave at the nissan leaf driver
Rory Clear haha.
Rory Clear haha - yeah saw that!
Brilliant episode Robert, love the reaction to the insane mod, Nerys was laughing all the way through it. Shame we never got to see it with you, but it was brilliant talking to you and Nerys loved every minute you mentoring her. I'm waiting for the model x version !
That was the most hilarious Tesla reaction I've seen!! I don't think I would ever need a car that could go that fast. Probably too much for me.
You have got to love Tesla P85D it pulls +1G accelleration i have driven the model S for 3 days and took 27 family and friends out in it ,it is without doubt the best car built in the last 100 years i have absoluty no interest anymore in petrol cars they are all so out of date. If anyone doubt this go online or go to a Tesla dealership and have a test drive yourself and you will never be the same again.
Robert , really great you tube channel i have watched all your enthusiastic reveiws of ev cars but i can tell that the Tesla has affected you like it has me i really wouldnt be suprised if they bring out "SPACE" mode and it tucks up its wheels and take you up into orbit .
Yep. I own a Bolt EV and don't even browse what new car is coming out, which is something I used to do habitually. I used to own a 2005 Lotus Elise. Great car....for its time. The Bolt is so QUICK it makes me laugh every time I take it out for "a pointless drive", as i tell my GF before i leave. I just JAB the power pedal and WHOOSH! It's SO fun. I have no interest in gas powered cars anymore, and I'm quite sure I never will.
Haven't roared with laughter at someone's suffering as much as this in a long time :)
Wow, that insane mode makes the green trees thru the window blur instantly. Fantastic video!
6:10
That actually made me so proud and happy you literally brought tears to my eyes 😳
I'd like to see an "Insane" or even better a "Ludicrous" launch in full Kryton getup. :-)
Having taken a test drive in a similar model I can vouch for Roberts reactions. I could feel the skin on my face pulling backward from the G force and the air was pushed out of my lungs. Walking back to the showroom the sales person looked at me and said "You've got it", I asked what, she said "The Tesla grin". I had that smile on my face all day. Tesla sales, the easiest job in the world.
have the American's finally made a better car than we in Europe can make? if not it comes very close.
Well it's wayyyy better than any mercedes, BMW or Audi I've driven. It feels so much more brilliant than those old German cars. I've driven the new E-Class and while brilliant still felt old, obnoxious and clumsy compared to a Model S. I don't know how they did it but I think they created the ideal car.
Rimac Concept One
Build quality isn't a patch on BMW. It's just fast, and they made the P85D for headlines!
Sidowse Don't know how you link those two thinks. Tesla margins will improve with the fall in price of batteries.
@@iAMChrisCC What did they make the P100D for?
I also own a Tesla Model S 85. When I took a test drive in a P85D I thought I could feel the blood in the large veins of my brain being pushed to the back of my head! Amazing! I'm keeping my, "Plain old S85".
I couldn't stop laughing at your reaction to insane mode!! Made my day!
Thanks for sharing.
one of the top greatest reactions for any car on youtube i think. i cant stop watching his reactions
Hi All,
just had a test drive of a P85D in Munich and I am completely blown away by the acceleration. I now get why the expletives are needed with a similar effect for myself - blurred vision and a dizzy head rush - holy ****.
I cannot currently comprehend what the "ludicrous" mode must feel like, but I guess I will have to test that out sometime HaHa !
Best car I have ever driven by a long way. Brilliant !!!
Such a great video! Love the use of insane mode. Every time I've seen it is the driver who has used it lots of times before and is trying to get reaction from passengers. Nice to see the driver using it for the first time especially as the driver is such a legend!
Also just wait for "Maximum Plaid Mode" on the Roadster. 0-60 in 2 seconds. Coming around 2019.
Well, not 2019 lol
But will come out one day 😅
I don't normally leave comments on videos but iv watched all of your videos and this is one of my favourites. I have test drove this as I'm moving to electric cars so I thought I would have a go. It felt like I was at a theme park and it comes out of no where.
I can't wait to have a go when Ludacris mode comes out. It feels like nothing iv ever been in or seen. Anyone that gets a gas engine in a mug in my opinion. If they can afford a BMW / Mercedes / Porsche then they are wasting there money not getting a Tesla.
I want to see the Red Dwarf team doing the INSANE mode. Cat at the wheel, Kryten in the passenger seat, Lister & Rimmer in the back. I can dream.......
I had my test drive from the Bristol showroom, lovely drive down through Pilning and along the A403 to the M48, then as I slipped onto the motorway I pressed the go peddle to overtake the truck that entered the motorway just before me and I found myself a teensy weensy bit beyond the speed limit!
Scary stuff.
Awesome acceleration reaction! The best I've seen on the web yet! You really make look the insane mode terrifying! Imagine how ludicrous the "ludicrous mode" is!!!
Yup. The Model S even in standard form is pretty unnecessarily fast, as I found in my own video review. The problem is, it's bloody addictive!
0 to lose your lisence lol
What's a lisence?
Seized Cheese you know what I meant
Now I wonder if the model 3 will have a Performance model
iMiguelAOG If a small enough pack to fit a Model 3 is capable to deliver 568kW instantly, then it would, and probably could out perform with less weight.
That could be 2 or 3 years from now. Considering that 2 years ago that the flagship Model S was over a second slower to 60mph, had no 4WD and did not have the hardware to enable autonomous driving, I'd say it's a very likely. There's no point doubting Musk, we should know that at this stage.
toyotaprius79 Based on watching a ton of Videos from Elon, I'm assuming that they're actually betting on battery density, plus the 20% reduced chassis size, but a fully steel chassis to get the cost down on the Model 3, so I don't think it will necessarily be lighter than the Model S - maybe even heavier, but the increased battery density gains will equal out to similar distance (they've quoted a "close to 200 mile range") and possibly similar performance.
The battery density wins are all but confirmed based on the 90kWh packs and the stated 5-6% expected gains per year on battery density, but even that was inferable based on earlier commentary in videos from JB Straubel and other comments from Elon. JB, in a video from circa 2014 (IIRC), says that battery density (historically) doubles approximately every 10 years.
Basically, aluminum is an expensive material to manufacture the car with, and they need to shave a full $40,000 off of the car.
Certainly some of the cost reduction will come from battery manufacturing cost reductions at the GW factory, but I'm betting that a steel chassis is one of the major contributors of cost reduction in the model 3.
Terry Simons Well wasn't the battery of the Model S originally in the 40,000s? I think that and the gigafactory would have to do a lot with shaving down costs. Then steel being used would be second.
Terry Simons I can't believe I forgot about that! That news must be over a year old now! Hopefully, Tesla may arrange something with BMW, exchanging drivetrain prowess for some of BMW's CFRP.
iMiguelAOG That would make sense in a way. When Nissan and GM both released their plug-ins, the global average price on batteries were over $450/kWh, making a Model S pack at that price you've mentioned. But Tesla didn't release its price until around last year, claiming it was $200, with Nissan claiming somewhere around $270/kWh. We have no indication if it did cost $40,000, but Tesla used Panasonic's 18650 cells that were already very popular in laptops. It would've had a price advantage to automotive-only cells, but we can't say by how much for sure.
The Gigafactory would be one sure thing to celebrate, but its effects would take over a year. Batteries would take a month to be manufactured.
iMiguelAOG I guarantee it will. Elon Musk has confirmed AWD (dual motors) will be an option, and even if it doesn't have room for the 503 hp (!!!) P85D rear motor, dual 259 hp motors is pretty impressive. The Model 3 might have less room for a huge battery with high-power delivery (the P70D "only" delivers 328hp to those motors), but on the other hand battery chemistry will have improved. There is no way Tesla won't offer the tricks of the Ludicrous mode (smart fuse, Inconel battery contacts, etc.) in an expensive Model 3 version.
So the Tesla P85D can bring on bouts of turrets in middle aged men?
This guy obviously hasn't ridden a motorcycle.
flangmasterj Two things, one, thanks for calling me middle aged, very flattering.
I think I was middle aged about 15-20 years ago.
Two, you clearly haven't driven a Model S.
The reason I say that is due to my work over the last 20 years I've driven and ridden literally 100's of different vehicles, from a 76 ton Challenger 2 tank to a 3,500 horse power top fuel dragster, single seat racing cars, rally cars and even a monster truck.
I have experienced faster acceleration than in this vid, but this experience is very different, the highest G force is experienced in the first 1.3 seconds, way above anything even a high performance bike can manage.
flangmasterj get rekt take a focking seet m8
flangmasterj Jeez you guys took this fairly docile comment pretty hard. There was no malice or offense intended. I've just never seen someone react the way this guy did to the acceleration of a vehicle. Literally looked like a hidden medical condition was bought on by this cars performance.
I'd love to see and hear you on a motorcycle. It's not just the acceleration that'd have you creaming your panties but the experience in general. No car compares to the feeling you get.
Stay fragile boys.
XxxSwegLordxxX
Glad to see sub ten year olds are taking interest in non-fossil fuel vehicles.
flangmasterj just another fuccboi i c
Excellent video, thankyou for posting. Loved every minute of it, including the bleeps! The excitement and emotion you expressed made me register on the Tesla site for more info!
Our GTR does 0-60 in 2.7 and it doesn't seem that violent and it doesn't hurt your body. I'm not sure if it's actually the car or its just you
Tyler Hough cdn4.explainthatstuff.com/electric-motor-gas-engine-torque.png
Tyler Hough Excellent, I was waiting for an 'our such and such car does such and such and it doesn't hurt etc.'
I'm sure you are correct, it's just me, I'm an old bloke and not used to it. If I was a young, healthy hard body masculine dude I'm sure it would be all in a days work, barely a hair out of place.
Markus Birth Very interesting
fullychargedshow As Markus Birth pointed out you do get instantaneous torque in electric vehicles so it actually may not just be you.
But what you have to realize is that the electric car has all that torque from zero rpm.
It doesn't have to hit 7000 rpm first. That's what kinda hits you.
Especially so if you are not used to that kind of acceleration. It instant acceleration.
It doesn't build up to it.
I love your reaction. When people that are car enthusiasts, and don't like electric, I just think about these moments.
I love that tesla keeps pushing the envelope with electric cars :D It makes all the other car makers look like they are sitting on there lorals lol
Still pushing is 2021
Spend 15min. searching this clip for Roberts reaction. Well worth it.
The P85D was wild. An acquaintance of mine who got one gave me a ludicrous mode demo ^^ wow, its a performance monster! "Brutally fast, instantly", no lag, insane mode!
INSANE MODE :))
I have also watched your 1007 miles update. Thanks for the video. Thanks. Subscribed and liked.
I'm not much for commenting but that was absolutely hillarious to see how giddy you were and the outcome. That was brutally terrifyingly fantastic! Very disturbing! I can't wait for you to do the P90D and have another go.
i love that reaction on his face while in insane mode for first time just love it
Great video. The 0-60 debate will always run and run. I get the fairground ride comparison as that can make your head spin and your just sitting there strapped in not trying to control the whole thing. I think a point worth mentioning is how this is a heavy sedan that you can go on holiday in with your family and not a 2 seat carbon fibre super car.
"like being fired of the deck of an aircraft carrier by one of those steam catapults". Thanks for providing a comparison that we can all relate to.
Another great video. Funny and informative. I'm sure the Tesla community will get behind this channel and increase those subscriber numbers. I also look forward to your 'Maximum Plaid' video in 4 years time.
Just an FYI,
It has a couple of significant differences from a rwd 85 Tesla.
One the rear motor is 503 horsepower and the front motor is 288 horsepower for a total of 691 horsepower.
The way Tesla gets better efficiency from an awd car is when your cruise is set to maintain the cars speed on the road be it a local road or the highway after you get to your set speed the car stops feeding power to the rear motor and you driving in at that moment a front wheel drive car. The front motor being smaller uses less energy versus the rear motor hence its efficiency goes way up on the cruise control. Both motors are used for regenerative braking but at cruise unless your climbing a steep grade only the front motor drives the car.
That's how an awd car gets better efficiency than a rear wheel drive car 🚗.
Absolutely amazing that Tesla comes up with a way to make a heavy car have better efficiency than a lighter car.
Cheers!
Robert/fullychargedshow can I just say I loved watching this video...more so your facial expressions and voice when stamping on the accelerator...so so funny!!!
Robert, by far the best P85D reaction video ever! You make me laugh. I too recently had a test drive of a Model S 60 and I told my viewers (I still haven't posted the video as of this posting.) that that was more than enough power for anybody. I can't even imagine that much power in a car that size. I probably would have reacted the same way myself. LOL
It comes to something when my dream car no longer has an enormous internal combustion engine. Fantastic car!
Hi Robert! Great vid! I am one of the 'new guys' to EV's, I've gone from a 2004 R32 to a 2015 e-Golf 8 months ago, and I will never go back to burning gas again! And thanks in part to fun videos from you and the whole FC and TEN group even though I'm in CA.
I LOVE my e-Golf and don't feel I've sacrificed driving dynamics, but it's honestly a gap filler until the Tesla Model 3, unless VW keeps making this car better and better :)
Keep up the updates! and I'll do my part to spread the word on EV's and your channel as well!
JAEGERTECH Being a stupid early adopter I went from an R32 Golf to a Prius, so you have done much better than me. Great to hear your change over,
I was literally laughing out loud more than once while watching this video :') Amazing power and at almost no running cost. Simply put, the future.
This is like being fired off in one of those roller coasters. It's instant torque and the whole thing just blows your mind! This guys screaming is justified
Haha, I had the same reaction to my Yamaha Fz-09, a mixed bag of being frightened to death, and laughing like a mad man. The bike goes from 0-60 in 2.7 seconds. The torque is so, that under hard acceleration your front wheel comes off the ground. You hear the roar of the inline 3 cylinder engine, and the tone of the Akrapovic exhaust. When you do finally decide to slow, you bleep the throttle to downshift and are greeted with flames and grumbles from the exhaust, beckoning you to accelerate again. You get all of that for around 8 grand. Since you're on a motorcycle, you are more at one with the road and machine. Its the most fun you can have with your clothes on.
Thanks for the fun in that fantastically fast funride. Fecking can, Eamom
Love the energy in your videos. keep up the great work
Ha ha! "It can go from zero to lose your license" and "you can look at pictures of them". So funny. Amazing car!! Thanks!!
Just an FYI, there are a few western states which have no speed limit during the daytime, at night the highway speeds posted are in effect.
I had the pleasure of test driving a P85D a week ago, and I agree. It's brilliant!!! After your first "Insane Mode" experience of acceleration the words "Holy Sh*t" come flying out of your mouth! It's practically uncontrollable, yes, like Tourrets. It's my next car for sure, unless I end up with a P90D - but I'd be thrilled to own a P85D just the same. I've owned some amazing cars, but this one is my favorite.
Love your videos - keep them coming! :-)
Best zero to 60 reaction video in a Tesla i have seen lol Wish i had the money for one.
Just came back here after 5 years for another laugh ... didn't disappoint 😁.
I laughed so loud while watching this. I think this is the funniest Insane mode video I have ever seen. Girls like to know 0-60 mile times as well, but for me it is just fun to know, because I have made sure not to drive fast enough for that to matter, though I love to know merging in this will always be easy. Loved the video. Keep them coming.
Another brilliant video Robert, all that's missing on-line from Model S videos is a fully loaded range video- your next challenge.
Aquatec (U.K.) Limited I am working on that, doing a very long road trip in August so will be testing range to the max
Absolutely terrific show, one of your best!
3:00 "really is disturbing.. I think I could do it a second time" lol
And a moose pokes out of the bush...
+jukkasc2 Oddly, there aren't that many Moose in the Cotswold area of England, we do have deer though which, although smaller, are big enough to cause serious problems if you run into them. Thankfully this was filmed in an area I've lived in for 30 years so I know the surrounding woodland and the areas the deer inhabit. The woodland I was driving through was fenced off from deer about 15 years back, hence why I filmed there.
fullychargedshow yeah I got ya, just more so for if this model ever gets released in Canada lmfao
+jukkasc2, And Tesla auto swerves and saves another life.
The look of sheer excitement and terror. That's how you know it's real.
"Using a little more in the electron department ok let's be honest a shit tonne more!" Someone forgot to beep that one out! 😂😂😂
I honestly think Electric cars will be the predominate over petrole with in 10 years. More so I think being able to recharge the cars in less than 10 minutes from 1/4 to Full. which if you think about is about the same time as it it would to fully fill a vehicle
I don`t think so. In my opinion current gas and diesel cars are still going to dominate the market for 10 to 15 years, and after that phevs and electric cars with range extenders for about 10 years until the range and fast charging solutions are worked out, and then (25 or so years from now) we will finally reach a domination of electric cars on the roads
This field of technology is moving faster all the time(no pun)... We have supercapacitors not far off. They are a game changer, and not just for cars.
If oil magnates will allow that to happen.
aky19832001 from on fumes to completely full in my Mercedes is about 3 minutes what does it take to charge a tesla from charge now to completely full and if you drove like an asshat and with the ac and radio blasting how far would you get again ?
Leadfoot2112 Frankly I'm a fuel guy. I can't imagine driving long distance and waiting around even more to charge. I fill my 4runner and I from fumes to mega full ( pas the click) I can squeeze in 30 gallons.
Love your channel man!
Anything Tesla is great... hope you get to drive the Model X when it comes out next month!
I'm really glad you getting more views. You deserve it.
I love the sound of that acceleration... So futuristic :D
Arman Ashourlou yeah almost no sound. The only thing you hear is very low noise going up in pitch as you move faster and faster. It sounds like that spaceship in the movie interstellar (when they are trying to go inside the worm hole)
Robert, the P85D is supposed to be slightly *more* energy efficient than the 85, if driven the same. You were probably seeing higher because of your "sporty" driving.
Love it! I've never heard Robert swear so much or be so excited
Haha fantastic review, the best one I’ve found on the performance Teslas. Keep up the good work. I really want a p85d now!! Deciding between fixing up my E39 M5 or buying one of these.
1:57 best insane mode reaction ever!
"AAAAAAAH I'M FEELING DIZZY!!" :')
Your initial reaction was hilariously great!
I'd be more convinced that it was so powerful if I hadn't already seen you get intimidated by a moped ride. Lol.
I literally laughed out loud uncontrollably when Robert was putting his foot down.
So the step up to the P100D is a bit of a jump in acceleration...and then imagine what that *200kwh battery* in Roadster 2.0 is going to be like! I can see the UA-cam videos already that people will be posting of drivers vomiting as they mash the throttle for the first time in that (or crashing the car into a light pole). Anyway, loved seeing your first reaction there, Robert. Awesome!
P.S. I will be getting my first EV hopefully in the next week or two: A used 2016 Kia Soul EV+ with low miles, one owner, super clean, no accidents and in excellent condition. Wish me luck!
UPDATE: Got the Kia and have been driving it for just over two years and no regrets! It is by far the best car I have ever owned or even driven!
4:45 "Ah, an excellent suggestion sir, with only two minor drawbacks"
Watching this after just watching the Renault ZOE GT line R135 video released 26/03/2020. It's crazy to think that the car that caused that reaction is now considered slow by Tesla standards. I believe the current performance Model S does 0-60 in 2.4 seconds (0.7 seconds faster). Mental, but some how very cool. I had a ride in a P85D in 2018 at FCL and I had a very similar reaction to be honest, but still want to do it again for some reason. I think I must have a screw loose.
Awesome Video as usual... Now... What I want to see videos of people placing stuff on the top of a tesla and then accelerating in ludicrous mode. Like a paper glass full of water etc. Something like those table-cloth videos.
Can't wait for your hands on review of the tesla model 3 performance version.
Rinsing us with that 30 second advert there.
I actually ordered a p90d today with ludicrous mode maybe I shouldn't have got that cuz it would be too fast
+Kenneth Martin Nah, I bet you won't regret your need for g-forces haha!
Bloody hell, just the view from the side window is enough to make me feel a little sick. While i dont see the use of engines such as this in standard road cars, im guessing its full potential will come in use in the proper track day stuff like forula e :3
Anyway, im glad to see electric cars are quickly (literally :D) catching up to the combustion variants. Given a few more years of development, and hoperfully it will be a much greener future.
