If the M5 fights for traction at launch, to be faster, so should the Tesla...
If it is a CVT, it may be possible for it to stay at the traction limit without the issues of a shift or turbo lag. Therefore achieving its max acceleration would be easier.
That being said, the M5 has the advantage, no question, if driven to its best.
That being said, the Tesla is impressive. If only it had 450 mile range or fast charging. I do a 400 mile trip a lot and don't want to search for charging stations in the middle of WV or spend hours waiting along the way.
Therefore, I'll take the M5. At least for now....
But to have a Tesla Roadster (no longer in production) or even a Volt for the daily commute wouldn't be so bad.
