This article has brought out a lot people to comment who don't know anything about sports cars, but feel necessary to insist they do. It's bad enough that I had to login in to dispell this reoccurring canard:
"EVs are faster in a straight line! EVs have a flat/high torque curve!" -- big whoop.
1) 0-60 times are biased against ICEs as their torque curves _aren't_ flat and so the start of range is mostly when the engine is at a disadvantage. In an actual road situation the ICE is already at speed and therefore at or near the peak of their torque curve.
2) Actual roads have these things called "curves". Your bulky heavyweight EV handles like a brick on 3 wheels. And it doesn't have as responsive braking due that weight.

This isn't completely relevant to your point, but I'm curious how you're seeing the sales times?

the question is [0, 1] so wouldn't that include +/-0 and 1, so 3 more?
