The answer turns out to be yes, yes an electric SUV is even quicker than an Aventador SV.

The Tesla’s 11.418-second quarter-mile time also set a record for SUV acceleration, Drag Times reports.

Maybe Lamborghini should challenge Tesla to a race around the Nurburgring, where the Aventador SV held the production car record until it was broken by the Lamborghini Huracan Performante.
