Please don't kill me until you read everything. Then kill away. I own a Tesla Model 3 which will beat about 99.5% of the cars on the road to 60 mph and 98% of them to 100. It does the quarter in 11.8 seconds. That's quick. Very quick. I drive it almost everywhere I go and that includes Phoenix to LA. It's slightly longer to do supercharging but most people stop for lunch and potty breaks so it's only a minor inconvenience. In spite of what many anti-EV people say, they are Zero Emissions but only after about 6-7 years. They are actually dirtier as those people like to say but they even that out. Once they reach that point they truly are ZE provided you charge it from Solar or Wind or Dam power but of course those have their own break even point. That all said, I also own a Jaguar XKR that has 400HP and a supercharger that whines very nicely. I wouldn't want to drive my EV all the time and I don't. I drive the Jag (with the top down) quite a bit. It has the muscle car sound and fills that void I get from the Tesla. As many have pointed out, EVs are the future. Not for the Green so much as for oil is finite. The sun and wind aren't. It probably won't run out in most of our lifetimes but getting energy from the sun is free once you pay for it and clean once you zero that out. It is the future. Kicking and screaming many will go, but they will eventually go.
