Not Ranked
I question the word “exciting” when attached to electric vehicles. Yes they can be incredibly fast, but exciting? Not so sure about that.
Consider this: how exciting would top fuel drag races be without the noise of those massive hemi engines on the edge of grenading?
How exciting would nascar races be without the noise? How exciting would F-1 or Indy car races be if they were silent?
I know I’ve lost interest in F-1 since they swapped the high revving normally aspirated engines for turbocharged engines. When they flew by at 19,000 rpm, the screaming engines would give me chills. Swap to electric engines, I won’t watch.
As for our noisy, smelly scary cobras, electrify them and they become as exciting as a Prius to me, no matter how fast they are.
And, yes, ev’s have their place and they are the future, I just don’t think a self driving silent car is exciting. And I want excitement in my vehicles. Millennials want non-involvement and self driving vehicles so they can spend more time on their phones. I want total involvement in my driving experience and the cobra does just that.
Just one guy’s opinion.
