Yes, but this is all meaningless. None of the cars we are discussing are track cars, with the EVs being the least suitable.

It is impressive that Porsche can make an EV that turns in a nice time on a track, but no one ever went to the track and said "Gee, I sure wish this thing weighed 3,000 lbs more."





Weight is the enemy of sport. My G31 handles very well, and I love it for what it is, but I would never argue that can take an M240i on the 'Ring or any track whatsoever. That is basically what this discussion has devolved to.
