Vir is not the Nurburgring. And it’s not stock.https://www.caranddriver.com/features/a46594739/2024-lucid-air-sapphire-lightning-lap-2024/
The Sapphire shattered the Lightning Lap EV record by nearly 11 seconds and became the fastest four-door, edging out the Porsche Panamera Turbo S by 3.5 seconds. What about the Tesla Model S Plaid? We've yet to test one with the Track package, but a pro driver ran a 2:50.7 in a Plaid at one of our track days. Nothing quicker can seat five adults in comfort, and only one even has a back seat at all. Everything faster, with the exception of the 2021 Porsche 911 Turbo S, wore track-ready R-compound tires. On the all-time leaderboard, the Air Sapphire nestles in between the 2016 Dodge Viper ACR and the 2020 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500. Wow!
“Sure, the Sapphire gets a typical comprehensive suspension overhaul, with substantially stiffer springs, bushings, and rear anti-roll bar, as well as additional negative camber front and rear.”
