Hairy Eater: no offense, but whoever claimed that is full of more BS than every livestock farm in Australia combined.
It takes an 8000 horsepower nitro methane powered, 45 PSI boosted 8 litre V8 dragster with tyres as wide as a small car to do the quarter in 5 seconds. (can you tell I went to the Nationals at Willowbank over the weekend)
Hate to break it to you but short of some massive shift in the method used to convert electrical energy to kinetic, no electric car will ever perform as well as your average petrol engine. Some have come close to decent performance, but after a range of 400-500 kilometers need 12 hours to charge, rendering them useless for any long distance driving.
