if your definition of "performance" includes anything other than launching 0-60 a couple times, then yes, there are plenty of ice cars that offer the same level of performance at or below the Tesla price point.
even if all you care about is that 0-60 number, it comes with caveats. to actually get the advertised number, you need to wait 30+ min to heat up the battery, and you can't do it more than a couple times before performance degrades. it will be a while before EVs can match the agility and sustained performance of their ice counterparts.
