EVs have full torque at 0 RPM so they are capable of accelerating much faster than an average ICE.
The manufacturer can alter based on software, how much current the electrical system is capable of supplying, how powerful the motors are, etc.
But even “normal non-performance” EVs that aren’t designed for performance like a Chevy Bolt come off the line way quicker than an equivalent normal car, even if they’re full 0 to 60 time isn’t that much faster.
- BLKNSLVR 2y agoI recently drove a 2014 Nissan Leaf. Not exactly a performance oriented EV, and the acceleration it's capable of is 'nice'. Not crazy, but was unexpectedly good given it's 10 years old and only trying to be an EV rather than a "hey look I'm an EV!!!".
