Tesla Roadster will be unveiled later this year will go from 0-60mph in less than ONE SECOND
Tesla rival launches electric supercar that can reach 60mph in under three seconds
BYD has launched an all-electric supercar that can hit 60 miles per hour (mph) in under three seconds, as the Chinese start-up seeks to challenge luxury brands such as Ferrari and Lamborghini.
The Tesla rival’s Yangwang U9, which will initially go on sale in China with a price tag of 1.68 million yuan (£184,000), has claimed a top speed of 192mph.
BYD has said the car can accelerate from zero to 100 kilometers per hour (62mph) in just 2.36 seconds, while also boasting a range of 279 miles.
This marks BYD’s latest attempt to undercut Western carmakers after it recently overtook Tesla as the world’s best-selling electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer.
BYD sold a total of 526,000 EVs in the final three months of 2023, beating Tesla’s tally of 484,000.
Across the year as a whole, the company posted three million battery and hybrid sales – which includes the company’s cut-price EVs that are now on sale in Europe, such as the BYD Dolphin.

Formula 1 cars do 0-60 in about 2.5 seconds and are driven by professional racing drivers on track. I very much doubt that his roadster will do 0-60 in one second and even if it does it shouldn't be sold to the general public for use on public roads.
The never ending competition to get more and more BHP and faster acceleration in road cars is stupid, you can't use it on UK roads anyway, especially down in East Sussex where the local speed limit is about 10 miles an hour in places as you have to meander around potholes the size of meteor craters.
