14 DAY TRIAL // The Tesla P85D is one mean machine! We stumbled upon this not-so-safe-for-work 3-minute video showing off the car’s Insane Mode function, which is basically a sport button that lets you accelerate from naught to 60 in 3.2 seconds, which is McLaren material (as one of the people in the video appropriately points out).
The reactions are priceless, but I – like many commenters on YouTube – was particularly taken with how the little girl’s iPhone 5c flies out of her hands and stays pressed against the back seat, fighting gravity and refusing to slide all the way down until the car stops accelerating.
The reason lies in the G forces applied to every object present in that car as Insane Mode kicks in. Not surprisingly, the grown-ups are scared out of their minds, while the children take it best. The little girl’s brother has the most hilarious response to all that’s going on.
I hear that the P85D is a commercially available car, so if you like what you see in this video and have 100K to spare, you can go out and buy one any day of the week. Just be sure to keep your hands off that Insane button in crowded areas. With or without revving, these speeds are seriously dangerous even on empty roads.
Video contains some occasional harsh language, therefore viewer discretion is advised.
