I think the new Tesla Roadster won't be far off the performance figures you imagine. The range of course is unknown. Battery technology (read capacity) and weight are the two hurdles I imagine BMW will have to overcome. The third will be improving steering (someone sent me an article on how Porsche have already done this (thanks)). Merry Xmas |

If you haven't driven a performance electric car before, you are doing yourself a disservice.
Imagine the top end torque and HP aided by a 4WD system with a couple 200HP electric motors giving 300ft/lb of torque from 1RPM.

Now understand that high performance electric cars only been around for about a decade. Battery capacities are increasing by about 50% every five years or so. Power electronics are becoming more efficient and lighter weight. Given time, besides some beautiful engine noises, gas cars will be things of the past -- like steam engine trains.

"...A hardcore smackdown to gasoline cars. Driving a gasoline sports car is going to feel like a steam engine with a side of quiche".
