Thanks to its tri-motor setup, the Model X Plaid produces a whopping 1,020 horsepower. It comes standard with “carbon-sleeved” brake rotors, all-wheel drive and torque-vectoring tech for better handling. Tesla says the Model X Plaid can accelerate to 60 mph in 2.5 seconds and top out at 163 mph.

However, the Long Range still has the, uh, longest range, with an estimated 360 miles. The Plaid, meanwhile, cuts that down to a still-impressive 340 miles.
