BoostAddict.com is having mixed feelings on this one. The 1999 Ford F-150 SVT Lightning changed the performance game as we know it. A pickup truck was dominating the performance scene. Yes, a pickup truck. ...Published on 04-30-2021 12:12 PM
Is this honestly all that impressive? The Porsche Taycan Turbo S is a high performance EV sedan that currently is the quickest EV one can buy. You can go down to your local Porsche dealer today and leave with one after you provide $187,000. ...Published on 04-15-2021 11:02 PM
As you know Porsche launched their entry level Taycan rear wheel drive model with a choice of two battery packs. This is the Performance Plus version that includes an 'overboost' launch feature pushing output to 476 horses. ...Published on 04-03-2021 09:04 PM
GMC is not playing around and fully intent on pushing the Hummer brand with electric EV's. Which is not a bad thing considering the awesome 1000 horsepower GMC Hummer EV truck they revealed to a tremendous response last year. ...Published on 03-03-2021 10:50 PM
Things are changing very quickly in the automotive performance world. EV's and hybrids are coming fast and furious and the NHRA is noticing. Just as the FIA recognized and created Formula E competition we will likely see the NHRA offer electric drag racing classes. ...Published on 10-21-2020 01:12 PM
People usually buy trucks for the utility. With Hummer there is also a certain status involved and GM flipped the script on the brand that was associated with excess and pollution. ...Published on 10-02-2020 05:52 PM
Electrics are gaining steam (pardon the pun). The Porsche Taycan in particular is being received quiet well outselling every other Porsche car which includes the 911 and 718 models in addition to the Panamera. ...Published on 09-25-2020 11:12 AM
Maybe those 8-second factory stock claims from Tesla aren't optimistic afterall? Lucid motors is already on the 8-second doorstep. You may recall Lucid Motors getting everyone's attention with a 9.912 @ 144.40 pass earlier this month. ...Published on 09-23-2020 05:31 PM
We all know what brought this on. Lucid Air seems to have Tesla scared as their upcoming 1080 horsepower Lucid Air Dream Edition ran a 9.9 @ 144.4 1/4 mile time which takes the crown for the fastest and quickest production EV. ...Published on 09-04-2020 02:34 PM
Where in the world did this thing come from? BoostAddict needed to watch the video multiple times as it did not seem real. A 1000+ horsepower all wheel drive electric sedan running 9.912 @ 144.40 in the 1/4 mile is absolutely crazy. ...Published on 05-05-2020 06:13 PM
It is getting a bit tough to keep up with all the new names, modes, and models Tesla is using with the venerable model S. Not too long ago 'Ludicrous Mode' was supposed to be the fastest but the Model S Performance was updated with a 'Cheetah' launch mode. ...Published on 01-23-2020 12:26 PM
Well this seemed exciting until the end of the headline. Hummer was never about efficiency or electric trucks. The vehicles were supposed to be all-terrain monsters that nothing would stop hence the military influence on the design. ...Published on 09-18-2019 08:01 AM
Take this with a grain of salt as this is a prototype Model S we are talking about here and additionally this is not an official time but an unofficial manually timed run. Tesla sure does seem quite serious about taking the EV lap battle to Porsche. ...
