's new Model S P100D could zoom from 0–60 in well under three seconds. Technically speaking, the family-sized sedan is faster than the vast majority of high-end, two-door sport coupes due to the newly announced 100 kilowatt hour battery that will power the vehicle.

Clean Technica stated that it is "absurd" that Tesla's Model S P100D is able to compete with sports cars that cost $1 million or more in a 0–60 race.

The massive battery will also be featured in Tesla's Model X SUV.

"It's in the battery, baby," Clean Technica proclaimed.
