Welcome to the Teslarati “racing” series where we’ll be bringing you a first-hand account of how our resident “48” Tesla Model S and other notable racers have tested the limits of their Tesla across a variety of driving events. The intent is to showcase the amazing capabilities of Tesla’s technology, as well as provide an educational overview of how modern day lithium-ion powered vehicles, in a performance setting, fare against their gasoline powered counterparts.
Our goal is to really drive awareness of how progressive EV technology has become. We give Tesla Motors our biggest gratitude for being the trailblazers to a cleaner and sustainable future.
