In one corner, a eco-friendly Tesla Model S P90D with 762 horsepower accessible at the touch of the ‘Ludicrous’ button, and in the other corner, the gas-guzzling Boeing 737-800 jetliner that has a top cruising speed of 840 km/h. This was the scene envisioned and realized by a joint partnership between Tesla and Australian flag carrier Qantas, in which the two companies are collaborating to drive innovation and sustainability in the transport industry.
