Misha Charoudin, a seasoned Nurburgring driving instructor, tested the car. Initially, he praised its handling but soon encountered severe braking issues, with the brakes overheating and failing. The car’s battery temperature also soared, degrading performance significantly. Despite Tesla’s claims of “track-ready” brake pads, the car struggled to complete a full lap without issues.
