As far as I know the Nissan GTR is the fastest production car in the world with 0 to 60 in 2.7s. Tesla with the ludicrous is only 3.0s. I could be wrong.

  If you read the linked press release they are expecting/claiming a 2.5 second 0-60 time.

    It looks like your post was the first of the nine direct replies (so far) saying more or less the same thing.
• maxerickson 10y ago
  They expect the upgrade they announced today (described in more detail at the link) to bring the Model S down to 2.5 seconds.

  You're thinking of the Model X. The Model S with ludicrous is 2.5s.
• anamexis 10y ago
  The article notes in the first sentence that the Model P100D can do 0 to 60 in 2.5s.

    > Tesla Model Truck P100D w/Ludicrous Speed Upgrade Someone was too eager to edit the wiki page. oh look, the model is better than a second slower on the 1/4 mile than the Ferrari/Porsche. Slower than the Audi R8 V10 too.

      Just to be clear, its 2016 and you're snarkily attempting to put down an electric car that costs ~100k and does 0-60 in 2.5 seconds because its a second slower on the quarter mile than a Ferrari that costs >10x as much and isn't electric? sigh.
• skykooler 10y ago
  That was before this announcement; the new P100D is 2.5s.
• ricardobeat 10y ago
  This is a new 100kWh battery pack, literally the first sentence says it does 0-60 in 2.5s.

  > The Model S P100D with Ludicrous mode is the third fastest accelerating production car ever produced, with a 0-60 mph time of 2.5 seconds. However, both the LaFerrari and the Porsche 918 Spyder were limited run, million dollar vehicles and cannot be bought new.

  According to the this post, Tesla is claiming 2.5s.
