Whenever I look ag EV articles, descriptions I see acceleration as a positive reason to get one. Yes, instant torque so away you go. Very soon to reach the speed limit. These days it is this acceleration that can be an easier “thrill” over high speed. I enjoyed that in the Plus 8 without going berserk. Driving smoothly was a better fun option than outright speed. Reading the road/conditions whilst getting a move on within legal limits was enjoyable. Still is 8n the Plus Four. a very capable car with plenty of scope to enjoy. I am still learning it after 5 months and 5k+ miles. Kickdown in auto gives a good surge, Sport/Sport+ likewise and paddle options add to it on suitable roads.
The 20mph limits here ( everywhere in Carms) mean a lot of crawling along and added journey times. Don’t believe the “only adds 1 min to the average journey” bull. That is poor stats not properly weighted for journey type/location.
Driving has definitely changed not for the better.
