Koenigsegg Agera RS Phoenix destroys a Tesla Model S Plaid in a race

Posted on

The Tesla Model S Plaid can sprint from 0-60 mph in 1.99 seconds. While that’s impressive enough, it’s not fast enough to beat gas-powered hypercars. In this case, the Koenigsegg Agera RS Phoenix.

Here’s a quick video of the Agera RS Phoenix, once owned by supercar collector Manny Khoshbin, leaving the Model S Plaid in the dust. It shows Koenigsegg driving along Plaid on an open highway. It’s clear from this video that Tesla doesn’t have the legs to beat the Agera in a roll over race.

The Plaid S model packs 1020 hp from a dual-motor setup. It has a top speed of 200 mph. Even so, the vintage car here has a 5.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine that runs on E85 fuel. It develops over 1300 hp and can reach speeds of over 284 mph.
