Ferrari or Tesla, Lucid or Lamborghini:

Which EV is more electrifying?

Story by Gautam Sharma • 1w

There was a time when the likes

of Ferrari, Lamborghini, McLaren and Porsche dominated all performance metrics.
They were among the elite brands that could see off all comers in any measure

of speed or acceleration.

However, the onset of electrification has levelled the playing field in some
respects, as the fastest accelerating cars available today are the relatively

unexotic Lucid Air Sapphire and Tesla Model S Plaid.

These battery blasters can destroy anything Ferrari, Lamborghini or Porsche
builds in terms of 0-100kph sprints or quarter-mile drag races.

The Model S Plaid dispatches the 0-100kph split in 2.1 seconds and hits 322kph
flat out, while the Lucid Air Sapphire is even faster, scorching to 100kph in 1.95

seconds and maxing out at 330kph.

They’re so rapid that even Bugatti’s all-conquering Chiron (priced from $3 million)
can’t match the off-the-mark acceleration of these two electrified upstarts.

The dramatic shift in balance of power hasn’t been lost on the senior

management of ultra-premium brands in Italy, Germany and the UK, but the
message they convey is that they’re not focusing merely on straight-line

performance. It’s more a case of maximising emotional appeal, delivering class-
leading cornering and braking capabilities, as well as making the driver feel
intimately connected with the car.
