I'm typically a lurker here, but I haven't been able to find much regarding the performance of the Model S Long Range (refresh). Every video/review out there is talking about the Plaid. I get it, it is fast. But what about the Long Range?
Specs on paper are impressive. Same as prior Model S performance and current Model 3/Y performance up to ~60mph. I'm hearing a lot of talk of how the MSLR has much more noticeable power/performance/speed increase AFTER 60mph. Where's the video proof?
That is what I'm interested in. I'm a performance/sports car guy and I have a MSLR on order (hopefully coming in the next month or two).
Where are the YouTube races against a Model 3/Y Performance after 60mph (say in the quarter mile). Where are the races against a Plaid to see how much slower it really is. There are tons of videos with "Plaid vs. [insert supercar/fast car here]". Nothing about Long Range. They talk about how the Plaid has rollout vs. Long Range not having it when quoting 0-60 numbers. What's a real life race look like between the two?
Yes, it isn't a race car, but I'm probably the minority when it comes to purchasing vehicles. I'm 100% about performance. And the Plaid wasn't worth the extra $30K since I have other "fun" cars at the moment. I want my basic sedan/daily driver to be fast too and I'm interested in seeing the videos/reviews.
