    World’s Fastest Accelerating Electric Car Hit 62 MPH In Under A Second

    add the better link do to fact one facebook gave went bad.
    With bragging rights among European universities at stake, the team achieved a blisteringly fast time thanks in part to a car that weighed only 309 pounds.

      Ha! What? There is no Tesla that can reach 100kph in less than .5 seconds. Don’t be ridiculous. Not even close. No Tesla, no WRC, no F1, nothing than can actually go around a corner can even touch .5 seconds because you have to build the car just for that metric which is pointless in any actual race.

      The White Zombie car I can only find quarter miles times for, 11.4 sec. That would imply nothing at all like a 1 sec 0-60. The record holder mentioned 0-60 in 40 feet, not a quarter mile, so you’re comparing apples to oranges but also this thing is WAY faster.

        5am. Dark. Super tired.

        I read the title of the thread wrong. I swear it said 4 seconds.
    Working...
