Not by EV standards. No gas car is faster than $90K Model S Plaid. Very, very few are faster than $75K “plain” Model S, or its counterparts in the lineups of other manufacturers. In fact most “hypercars” are now slower than the Cybertruck.

It depends if we're talking about two launch control on a drag strip or actual speed on a track, in which case a plaid S get smoked by quite a lot of cars actually, and a lot are similarly priced or cheaper than a plaid S

That is very valuable to dozens of us (dozens!) who race our cars at Nurnburgring.
