Would you believe an electric car with 1,000 horsepower, a 0-60 time under three seconds, and a top speed over 200 miles per hour? [Link]?

1 Answer

Answer :

Why not? Pound for pound, an electric motor has far more torque that a gasoline or diesel engine, no RPM restrictions (for the most part). And the battery required for this speed demonstration only has to propel the car for the distance and minimal time required in a single instance, not 8 to 10 hours like a conventional electric car.
