Tesla Plaid 2022

15/03/2022

The Tesla Model S Plaid is the fastest car offered by Tesla today and certainly one of the fastest in the world. Tesla adds a Track mode to the Tesla Plaid 2022.

Tesla's Model S Plaid is the fastest production car ever made

The Model S Plaid is thus described as the fastest production car ever made; all categories combined. The vehicle is capable of going from 0 to 60 miles per hour in two seconds. The car is equipped with three engines with a total power of 1,020 horsepower and offers a range of approximately 627 kilometers.

 



Tesla Model S Plaid performance

It is therefore in terms of performance that the Plaid is presented. In fact, the Tesla Model S Plaid is equipped with three electric motors developing 1020 hp, as well as four-wheel drive. It is announced for 637 km of autonomy, but above all proves capable of reaching 320 km / h and of bringing down the 0 to 100 km / h in 2.1 s. Hair-raising times considering the weight of 2162 kg of the vehicle.

Specifically, the cooling system will be more aggressive in order to improve engine endurance and performance in addition to reducing the waiting time between track sessions. As for the engine, the torque is distributed more efficiently between the three motors to improve handling while the accelerator pedal is more precise, allowing the user better control over the performance of the car.

In addition to its traction chain, the Model S has been deeply modified. The Plaid announces one of the best drag coefficients for a production car, with a Cd of only 0.208, barely worse than the record Cd of 0.20 of the Mercedes EQS.

The announced autonomy is 628 km, thanks to a new battery pack which is unfortunately not detailed. Recharging makes it possible to recover up to approximately 300 km of autonomy in just 15 minutes. This should be made possible by increasing the charging power in super mode, currently limited to 250 kw.

Finally, the adaptive suspension is firmer in order to improve handling while the height of the suspension is set to the lowest.

TESLA BOOSTS MODEL S PLAID SOFTWARE FOR RACING 

Completely inspired by the Track Mode launched on the Model 3 in 2018, this Plaid Track Mode reserved for the Model S Plaid offers individual adjustment of stability control, handling balance and regenerative braking in order to give the driver more power over the control of the vehicle on the circuit. As Tesla points out, this mode was developed specifically to take full advantage of the trimotor platform and its power of more than 1000 horsepower. Let's see together in detail the contributions of this Plaid Track Mode:

· Optimized Powertrain Cooling: With Plaid Track Mode, battery and motor temperatures are constantly lowered through shared cooling loops.

· Improved regenerative braking power: Designed to recover more energy when decelerating, reduce the load caused by brake friction for better thermal management, and offer better modulation with a single pedal.

· Lateral Torque Vectoring: With Plaid Track Mode, Model S Plaid automatically adjusts torque distribution between the rear wheels, independently, helping to increase cornering response, improve on-center steering feel and provide even greater yaw control. Compared to traditional open and limited-slip differentials, which always have to fight between cornering response and maximum traction, our electric motors adjust in milliseconds to give the driver both qualities simultaneously, resulting in faster in bends, to increase the speed of passage in curve and to obtain a stronger acceleration out of bends.

· Adjusted vehicle dynamics:. The vehicle dynamics controller evaluates the steering angle and the pressures exerted on the accelerator and brake pedals to determine where the driver wants to place the car. Allows tire slippage and automatically adjusts torque distribution to give the driver even more authority and agility in high-speed cornering.

 



The Plaid Plus model promised the same acceleration capacity. Its engines, on the other hand, developed 1,100 horsepower and promised a range of 520 miles. Its selling price was defined at $150,000.
