  Those cars aren’t electric?

  Do you mean because gas the nearest car or first car he beat in that list is Renault Magane?? Not exactly known as the greatest sports car of all time? Every other car that beat the Model S is essentially a super-car, if not a sports car at a minimum. They made to do one thing really well, and that's to go fast around a track. The Model S is an unmodified family sedan. It isn't like an Alfa Qudrofoglio GTAm which has had the seats removed and rollbar fitted, essentially turning it into a race car. This is the same car you'd pick the kids up in at school, load with groceries, and then take to the track and whollop anything that isn't purpose built for speed. Then, it also happens to be electric. I'm curious to see what the Rimac will do around Nurburgring, or other purpose built electric. BTW, I'm not an BEV fanboy, I love my late 535i Wagon, and would love an old Alfa or something, but the future is EV.

  Perhaps the others are not considered production vehicles?
