When it comes to the scale footprint of its vehicles, Tesla is a lot like Bentley, with the Model X-Model S pair resembling the Bentayga-Continental GT in two ways.
First of all, none of these cars will treat the scale easily, while the weight difference between the SUVs and their non-lifted range mates isn't as large as in the case of most other cars on the market.
Having gone past the Palo Alto-Crew comparison, how do Tesla's Model X and Model S stack up against each other? Well, we're here to answer that question with the help of an acceleration comparison video.
We're dealing with a pair of P90D models that get hooned on a derestricted section of the German Autobahn. And while the two don't engage in a drag race, the comparison footage brings us the next best thing.
The EVs, which both come with the sprint-happy Ludicrous mode, are taken from standstill to their 155 mph (make that 250 km/h, you metric system fans) maximum velocity - thanks to the layout of this clip, it's easy to keep an eye on the gap between the two EVs.
However, as you monitor the said gap, keep in mind that drag is proportional to the square of velocity.
And yes, this comparison no longer covers new cars, since Tesla has recently discontinued the P90D, leaving a massive pricing gap to the P100D.
And speaking of the "100" model, the electric vehicle producer hasn't shown us the full performance of its new range-topper yet. Back on Friday, Elon Musk used his Twitter account to let us know the Model S P100D hasn't delivered its full blow yet.
And with the Model S already holding the record for the quickest sedan in the quarter-mile, we can't wait to see what that Easter Egg is all about.

Forgot to mention there will be a P100D Ludicrous Easter egg soon that uncorks the full performance
