On it's face, this claim is utterly ridiculous.

Model S plaid: Curb Weight : 4932 lbs / 2237 Kg

M5 Base: 2023 Base 4,345 lbs. V8

In a drag race, the Plaid will murder the M5. TWICE as heavy?

Maybe when you add up all the cars and compare the EV's to the econoshitboxes, maybe. But same external size and application? No way.
