0-60 times do not make supercars. People keep repeating that but that isn't really why they are interesting. A car is more than its engine.
Fast in a line is not the same as fast overall. One of the best parts of Spec Miata is the frustrated point-bys by Ferrari drivers.
A properly equipped supercar will still eat a tesla in turns and handling etc. The Renovo is actually a supercar and has more going for it than just the power train. (I have been driven in one by the founders)
I am all for autonomous vehicles ruling the road. People shouldn't be driving like idiots there anyway. And I believe they are interesting on the track too: http://selfracingcars.com/ http://selfracingcars.com/
- tstrimple 11y agoFor the vast majority of drivers, the 0-60 speed does make a super car. They aren't going to be racing top speed for hundreds of miles, or cornering like in an actual race. They are going to be racing from stop light to stop light faster than just about anyone other than the real super cars.
- joshu 11y agoYou can do that in a Corvette too. A top fuel dragster is MUCH faster than any of these things but is also not a supercar. You are just redefining things without proving your point. I do not think you know much about this stuff, just have a bunch of opinions without experience. Sorry to be blunt.
