> Most driving enthusiasts, once they experience the instant torque of electric cars, never look back. That's joy.
What is this based on? Really isn’t the case in any auto enthusiast group I know of except ones that are extremely casual/Tesla-fanboys. If it were, all the people I know wouldn’t be buying GT3s, Huracans, R8s, etc. I know 0 who bought electric. I’m in the market myself for another car but I’m not looking at an electric car - gonna buy another ICE sports car because they have a lot more emotion and character. Not like any electric sports cars even really exist at this point anyway… or are still in production I guess.
I have read several reviews where people comment that, "driving is way better without the complications of an ICE and a transmission between you and the road". Instant torque changes your relationship with speed: it is ground, tires, suspension, torque and you. Before, there was a complicated interplay of RPMs, turbo spin up, clutch adjustment, gear ratios, etc between you and the suspension.
