Okay, let me see if I have this straight: They're comparing the Taycan Turbo S, a real live car vs a Lucid Air, an imaginary car, vs Model S Plaid, also an imaginary car.

Seriously??!!

And really, so much fuzz over .4 to .1 seconds, well, unless I'm going to race it for money.

Uh, my point was that two of the three cars don't exist.

Lucid is a stretch, however Plaid based on an existing platform is much closer to reality.

And I agree any sub 12 second car is borderline dangerous on the street. 150+ mph seems unnecessary to me.

The market for super high performance sport sedans has and always be there, albeit pretty small. And companies like Porsche, Tesla etc will continue to duke it out. Zero to 60 in 5 is actually pretty fast and will suit most.

I don’t know about Lucid but I would think Plaid S will be on the shelves for Christmas.

Just a guess.

My son-in-law owned a Lambo Aventdor, his cycle of high-performance car owners do really. obsess about this. Then my daughter arrives with her Tesla X and everyone shuts up. [emoticon]
