A Tesla Model S Plaid driver survived a terrifying crash at roughly 178 MPH on Germany’s Autobahn after an alleged rear tire failure caused the car to lose control.
⠀
The 1,020-horsepower Plaid was reportedly traveling around 286 km/h when the incident happened, just below the 300 km/h speed rating of its tires.
⠀
The biggest twist is that the rear Goodyear Eagle F1 SuperSport tires were reportedly part of a 2026 safety recall involving potential tread deformation or crown separation during high-speed driving.
⠀
Goodyear warned that affected tires could lose structural integrity at speed and potentially cause a loss of vehicle control.
⠀
The uploader claims the rear tire suffered tread delamination and reportedly knew about the recall beforehand, although the exact cause of the crash has not yet been independently confirmed.
⠀
Despite the enormous forces involved, the driver survived and says he is recovering, with the process expected to take several months.
⠀
Would you ever push a 1,000+ HP car this close to its tire speed rating on the Autobahn? 🤔💭
