This video showcases a remarkable custom build: the world's first Tesla-powered Audi S5. The reviewer is thoroughly impressed by the ingenuity and execution of the conversion, highlighting the seamless integration of Tesla components, including the battery, motor, and inverter, into the Audi chassis. The build's ability to retain the original Quattro all-wheel-drive system and the custom gear reduction for enhanced low-end torque are particularly praised. While the owner admits the cooling system for the motor is not yet fully implemented and the battery management system is a custom solution, the overall performance and the owner's technical prowess are evident. The reviewer expresses excitement about the potential for such conversions and the future of electric mobility, even teasing an upcoming mystery build.
