I suspect ICE's will continue to evolve. Direct Injection has made a huge difference in the power they make. Also, the Camaro ZL1 has a 10 speed auto that keeps the car in the powerband continuously.

I know the American Muscle Cars have been doing amazing things, my Nephew has one of the late model hotrod Chryslers, I can't remember if its the charger or what, but I guess he only tracks it, and that only 3-4 times a year.
That's pretty darn good. Now, when they have an affordable car that does that, I'll be first in line.

Yeah they're a little rich for my blood too, but I love the idea....and driving an electric car is a whole other experience.

0-60 in 4 seconds is still a pretty fast car, the upscale plaid model Tesla does the 60 in less than half of that.

Ride along as a Taycan silently takes on "Das Ring"
this is a prototype model, not tuned as hot as the Taycan "Turbo S" 7.42 on the ring, quietly.

I have to admit, I think I could drive this to the limit better than my ICE Supercar. The lack of engine noise would make it easier to concentrate on the tire noise and road feedback. I'm an amateur road course driver and I never realized how important even the feedback you get in your feet is...and I'm not talking about through the brake either. The vibrations through your shoes are important to know what the car is doing.

It's like driving some star trek shit, in comparison for the reasons your just said, there is very little almost no vibration from the motors either.

In what 3rd world shithole is 0-60 in 1.9 seconds "underperforming"?

I bet it doesn't do 0-60 in that time when the Burrito Bison is at the wheel...

When you're 500-1000 kilometres from anywhere that can recharge your battery via a transmission line fueled by coal or gas... you stupid fuck ....
