The Tesla Model S is the only production car I've ever seen that accelerates faster than it brakes. It's able to go from 0-60 mph in just 98 feet, while the reverse, 60-0 mph, takes 104 feet. That begs two questions: Is the Tesla Model S under-braked for road driving or track driving (or both)? And how in the world is it possible that the acceleration is stronger than the brakes.
In this video we'll compare the Model S Plaid to the Porsche Taycan Turbo S, we'll discuss traction limited vs power limited, we'll look at anti-lock braking systems (ABS) vs traction control, and finally we'll talk about understeer and oversteer, and how braking is controlled at the limit for vehicle stability, by analyzing the C8 Corvette.
