Renaissance man Jamie Foxx got what looks to be his first taste of electric torque in a Tesla Model 3 Performance this week on his YouTube channel. The comedian, songwriter and actor says his friends have been hounding him to drive one, and he does his best imitation of a car reviewer, which isnt very good. Thats OK, the impressively ripped Foxx has other talents, like playing Mike Tyson in an upcoming biopic.

Ive only been in a few Teslas during my tenure here at Autoweek. Circumstances seemed to always be against me. The first one was stuck at the bosss house with a charger issue; the second died after half a track day. But do I remember a similar string of expletives coming out of my mouth the first time I was riding shotgun and went from zero to 60 mph in 2.9 seconds.

Foxx does what he does best, crack jokes to the camera, while driving. He floors it a few times, letting out a string of swear words each time. He also slips into a Dwayne Johnson impression for a moment, which is not surprisingly great. His cohorts film it all from the passenger seat.

He swaps into semi-autonomous mode for few minutes and does a little dance, having to be reminded that the driver needs to touch the wheel periodically. He then pretends to take a nap, which I want to say is not funny, but almost anything Foxx does IS funny. Dont do that, people. Dont try to take a nap in your Tesla.

Foxx finishes off the video with the old, step-out-of-the-car-and-give-your-final-thoughts bit, but of course he just cracks jokes. Wed expect nothing less.
