The batteries on the EV are deadweight hence the need for so much horsepower to get it moving fast, and the additional weight of those batteries and that metal tomb surrounding them is very hard on rubber tires. That’s before you try to drift if that’s possible with most electric cars but in America, that’s ok because the only thing Americans want to do primarily is go straight fast in a drag race handling and side to side, stability at speed doesn’t matter, a former Mustang GT owner in my early 20s when I didn’t know any better. Got rid of that ford junker for a car that had less horsepower but a hell of a lot better handling and stability at speed. And yes, it was a German car.
