Unplugged Performance previously released footage in which the Plaid Tesla dominates a McLaren P1, McLaren Senna, and Porsche 991 GT3 RS, and now we can see how easily a Lamborghini Huracan can be overtaken in a Model S Plaid.

We are certain that advancements in battery technology (4680 packs, structural packs, and newer chemistries) will be sufficient to effectively lift the threshold later this decade.
