A Tesla? I think you mean quickest car you have ever been in. Meaning, acceleration not over all top speed.
"Quick" is used to describe the quality of an action that is short and powerful, e.g. a "quick head-fake".
"Fast" is generally used to describe actions that are more sustained, e.g. "a fast sprint down the field".
