Model X horsepower and 0-60 sec discussion

This site may earn commission on affiliate links.
I am a new Model X owner LR+ 20" with -H battery built 9/2020. I have been looking for LR (non-performance) horsepower and 0-60 information and have not found much in the forum especially for power. I will post my findings to this thread and ask anyone else with info to chime in as well. Thanks

74% SOC in "very low", car is not hot but not cold, floored it from 30 mph.

421 kW battery power according to TeslaFi, which corresponds to 565 bhp. Assuming 7% loss to axle (Raven) this is 525 hp at the wheel, which close to the 518 hp I found on this page. Interestingly, this is the same power I measured for my P3, which is 0-60 in 3.00 1-ft rollout (beast!).

I will measure 0-60 at high SOC and when warm soon and post here, seems like the best will be 4.4 sec with 1-foot rollout.

Thanks for sharing. Pretty amazing that a vehicle of this size and weight can accelerate at that pace. And it's not even the P model. Nuts
I agree! 5,000 lb beast. And I think there are faster times possible if Tesla updates the power curve. It feels weak off the line until 20 mph, perhaps to protect the half shafts from issues. I am wishing for a $2k acceleration boost for Christmas like Model 3 and Y! I’d love to have 3.8 sec 0-60. Maybe I will tweet Elon.

Did you ever get a dragy of the full 1/4 mile? I'm tempted to go get a timeslip for this thing, just for science, but if somebody has already confirmed the LR+'s 1/4 time there's no sense in me going out and very quietly wasting a bunch of energy on running Grand Cherokee SRT8-ish times

No, not yet. I don’t have access to a safe drag strip. I can do 5 sec locally but not the 11s I need for 1/4 mile, nor the 100 mph speeds.

here is a screenshot of fastest LR X I found on dragy:
11.31 sec @ 117 mph
Good news is that’s only 0.4 sec slower than fastest Raven P100D X.

That has to be a Performance. That's significantly quicker than the time Car and Driver got out of a Long Range Plus S, and in cold weather too. There's no way this thing runs 11's, we have a mid- 11's-capable ICE car (E63 AMG-~11.6@124) and it's nowhere near as quick, not even a little bit close beyond 70mph, or off the line. The only place they feel even sorta close is at initial throttle tip-in and from about 30-70, when the E63 still isn't even allowing itself to build full boost in 2nd gear.

I may have to take this thing to a night at the local strip just for funsies. My buttometer says 12.8 at 109 ish. There are a few vids out there of a 100D doing a 13.0 at 106-107

But if anyone here has actually done the work already on a Raven Long Range/LR+ that'd save some time, lol

You’re right, the owner doesn’t say Performance anywhere but it must be.
Here is a dragy 1/4 mi for a 2017 X100D, ours might be a hair faster but doubt by much. I wish we were in the 11s.

2017 X
12.96 s 1/4 @ 108 mph

I found a video, finally, somebody on here probably made it.


13.04 at 107 (with a pretty terrible-for-an-AWD-car 2.1 60') for a 2019 Raven Long Range on 20's. He had it in Very Low. Weird how different the UI looked back in February of 2020.

I'm sure if Tesla actually let the car loose and didn't torque limit from a dig, it would be a 12.7 or so. Something this powerful ought to be able to do a 1.9 60' no problem. For reference, this Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 (not the Trackhawk) ran a 12.7 at 107, with a 1.8 60' thanks to actually allowing full torque at launch.


Still don't have anything for a Long Range Plus, and maybe the lower-drag powertrain might be worth a mph, but I'm sure 13.0 is pretty close. He did three 13.0's in a row, and his Vbox was saying 4.75-ish 0-60 mph, which if 4.5 is truly what the H-battery Long Range Plus can do, as you found with yours, maybe it really is more like a 12.8 or so.

Anyway, there it is for the archives 1/4 mile Long Range Plus LR+ search terms yay!
