The Tesla Model Y Performance starts at approximately $ 60,000. It has a range of 291 miles, a top speed of 155 mph and a time of 3.5 seconds from zero to 60 mph. Produces about 500 horsepower.
The Lamborghini Murcielago is powered by a 6.5-liter V12 engine that generates around 600 horsepower, which is huge for its small footprint. When it was new, it was priced at just $ 300,000. Just looking at these two cars side by side tells a story.
Brooks Weisblat from DragTimes has been promising more Tesla Model Y content. For drag racing fans, this latest video is arguably the best Tesla coverage the channel could offer at the moment.
If we ask you to look at the Instagram photo above and bet on a winner, you can immediately choose the Lambo. However, since we are sharing this video on an EV website, you may think twice and wonder if Model Y can really do it. What if we tell you that Model Y was not fully charged? It was around 89 percent. Spoiler ahead!
In the end, Model Y achieved a quarter mile time of 11.93 seconds. The Lambo didn’t even come close, just over 14 seconds away. However, Weisblat jumped out of the line while the Lambo driver was behind. Can we fully attribute this to operator error? With an EV, just press the pedal and you get consistent results. That is not the case when driving a gasoline powered car.
No matter how you look at it, it’s crazy that a family-oriented crossover can even try to match a Lamborghini. Let us know your thoughts in the comment section below.
