The Type 01 is the first model to arrive from Jaguar’s rebirth. The British carmaker was an early entrant to the modern EV market with the 2017 I-Pace, which was fun to drive even if it was too small inside and perhaps completely unreliable. An all-electric sedan was supposed to be next, but a year from the showroom, it was abruptly canceled, leaving the automaker with nothing to sell as old models like the F-Pace ceased production.

That’s why I’m talking about the “high end” EVs. Other than fancy interiors, they don’t do much more than the average mid-priced EV.
Look at how the Porche EVs have dropped in price. That’s some Stellantis level of devaluation.
You have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. You are just moving the goal posts with every post, thinking you have a valid point each time.
You: EVs have bad power to weight ratios.
Reply: EVs have a better power to weight ratio than ICE.
You: Oh, I meant weight only. They can only do drag racing and can’t do turns.
Reply: EVs perform better than ICE at similar price points on road tracks with turns.
You: Oh, I meant only the high end EVs. They aren’t any better than the cheaper EVs.
Reply: High end Porsche EV is faster than most ICE super cars and much faster than cheaper EVs.
You: Oh, but Porsche EVs have bad resale value.
Just accept that you are wrong.
My issue is that nobody cares about EV supercars because mid-priced EV have supercars acceleration.
EV supercars have to bring something other than a nicer interior. They have to really push for cutting edge tech.
There are no expensive EVs that anyone sees as legendary cars like a Bugatti Veyron. People just see them as expensive EV cars.
