Tesla Roadster vs Rimac Nevera: Battle for the Fastest Electric Car
TL;DR
Elon Musk responded with "LOL" when asked if the Tesla Roadster will beat the Rimac Nevera's 0-60 mph record of 1.74 seconds. However, given the insane performance of the Model S Plaid and Model X Plaid, it's not impossible for the Roadster to break the record. The Roadster is expected to feature an evolution of the tri-motor electric powertrain in the current Plaid models and will be lighter and more aerodynamic. The Roadster is expected to launch next year, and while it won't be a huge contributor to revenue, Musk says "it will be sick."
