>> Right or wrong, having all that acceleration
Right, definitely right. Acceleration trumps speed for fun always.
There’s definitely a ton of reasons people buy EVs. I’m just offering what i think is a more realistic dumb reason than the virtue signalling the GP proposed
- seanmcdirmid 4y agoIsn't accelerating really quickly from 0 to 25 when the light turns green a form of virtue signaling? You aren't going fast, but you are definitely giving those ICE drivers a signal of some kind. Well, maybe that isn't a virtue.
- CraigJPerry 4y agoYeah that’s back to the showing off/ status symbol thing. Maybe some fellow car enthusiasts would share a view that’s a virtuous command of the tarmac.
- _hypx 4y agoYou can get the same thing with a ICE car with a big engine. There's something specific about wanting way more power than you need but demanding that it happens silently.
- seanmcdirmid 4y agoYou can get that with an ICE with a big engine, maybe in an actual sports car rather than just a nice comfortable sedan. It depends on what trade offs you want to make in your life.
