Well, no engine, and no tires. That's where most of the noise comes from.

Boring.

I wonder if it would be faster to charge the Plaid using the dynos as motors. You know like a treadmill for EV's

Regen should be capped, but Tesla has a warning not to.

Remember, some Mach-Es overheated that way.

As usual, it makes even more power than Tesla claims!

This helps explain why it can beat the Lucid Air so easily.
