62 mph

!oddlyspecific@lemmy.world

I wonder why that number was chosen?

Edit: 62 mph ≈ 100 km/h

Edit 2: Is this that remarkable for an EV? It's only slightly faster than a Model S Plaid...

It’s marketable, remarkable or not is secondary, point is faster than anything else :) Everyone knows that sub-something 0-to-something-else straight line acceleration spec for an ev is exactly what our planet needs right now! Jokes aside, all these “super” vehicles are either to make huge profits with margins a-la-Ferrari or to push the brand aka pure advertising. And honestly, this is one of the most entertaining advertising around!
