Every car can go from a standstill to accelerating in a split second.
>their maximum acceleration isn't very high
What is the maximum acceleration of an EV? Do you have some numbers?
>ICEs need more time to reach maximum acceleration
I don't think what you're describing is jerk, it's acceleration (and velocity).
- readams 2y agoJerk is by definition how fast the acceleration changes. And it's true that there is more delay in ICE engines before you get full power and thus the acceleration changes more slowly.
- trgn 2y agoICEs don't develop same torque at every rpm, it takes a while to get to maximum. It's noticeable in how a car speeds up.
- fellerts 2y ago> Every car can go from a standstill to accelerating in a split second Going from a standstill to accelerating at say 3 m/s² is very different in a normal ICE car vs. an EV. It's anecdotal, but you must have noticed this if you've driven an EV before. > What is the maximum acceleration of an EV? I was talking specifically about the electric buses in my city. They don't have massive acceleration compared to, say, a Tesla. > I don't think what you're describing is jerk I am talking about how rapidly electric buses change acceleration. That's the definition of jerk.
