> 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.
