Tesla SUV earns a Guinness World Record for towing massive airplane


Tesla's Model X SUV is so strong it earned a Guinness World Record for towing. Tesla released a video on Tuesday that shows ones of its electric SUVs towing a 287,000-pound Boeing 787-9 dreamliner nearly 1,000 feet on a taxiway at the Melbourne Airport in Australia. The plane is part of Qantas Airways' fleet and the effort set a new Guinness World Record for being the "heaviest tow by an electric production passenger vehicle." This isn't the first time Qantas and Tesla have created a video that's gone viral. In 2016, a Qantas Boeing 737-800 aircraft raced a Tesla Model S P90D on an airport runway.
