I’ve been around fast cars long enough to know that people just crave more and more power, even when they are 10 seconds off the pace on a track day for the car they already have. Drag racing too is a hobby where more power is always welcome. But for a road/street car there is always a diminishing return on what power you can safely utilise. Obviously you just crave maximum straight line acceleration, which is fine. More power in a 3P isn’t going to make you any faster through the corners. That was my point really.
The part about power being linked to battery capacity and therefore weight is the exact reason I’m not wishing for any more power in this car. I would prefer less weight because I know that will inherently make it a better handling car. If I lived somewhere with straight roads and lights every quarter mile I might think differently, lol.
That's the funny thing. People rag all day long on Tesla for being heavy, when they're comparing a 4200 lbs ICE to a 4500 Tesla. But then talk about how great the handling is on the 5222 lb heavy Porsche Taycan. The same people.
