# Koenigsegg Agera RS Phoenix Outperforms Tesla Model S Plaid in a Race
The Tesla Model S Plaid can go from 0 to 60 mph in just 1.99 seconds, which is quite impressive. However, this speed is not sufficient to outpace a high-performance hypercar like the Koenigsegg Agera RS Phoenix.
A video captured the moment when the Agera RS Phoenix, previously owned by supercar enthusiast Manny Khoshbin, left a Model S Plaid far behind. The footage depicts the Koenigsegg racing side by side with the Model S Plaid on a clear stretch of highway, clearly demonstrating that Tesla’s offering is no match for the Agera in a rolling race.
The Model S Plaid boasts 1020 hp from its dual-motor system and can reach a top speed of 200 mph. On the other hand, the Agera RS Phoenix features a 5.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine fueled by E85, generating over 1300 hp and capable of reaching speeds exceeding 284 mph.
