Video: First Tesla Model S to Hit Dyno Records 386hp

Tesla Model S Performance Dyno Test

The first Tesla Model S to hit the dyno was recently done by Dragtimes who decided to verify if the documented figures given by Tesla match those of their test. Keeping in mind Tesla’s official output of 416hp, they strapped it up and upon throttle application.

The dyno recorded 300 horsepower at zero miles per hour. The power jumps to 368hp at around 55mph before closing in at around 220hp closer to the car’s limited 130mph top speed.
