Absolute superiority
So I went to Julian once again and this time the trip was even more enjoyable. The car does best on downhill where there is no need to use the breaks... it just regenerates. But uphill and on curves its true characteristics and the low center of gravity due to the battery pack make it an awesome rocket that carves the road like it would be on rails. Passing other motorists is incredibly easy and reminds me of riding a high power motorcycle like a Ducati I used to own a few years back. This is especially important as along the whole of the 79 there are only 2 spots where one can legally pass and both are less then 1/2 mile in length so an ultra fast speedup followed by a quick slow down is necessary to stay within the range of the dotted line and with a good sight of the opposing traffic. The smoothness of the power curve is, well, just that: Linear and swift. The mountains is where a high performance EV really shows how much electrics are mechanically and performance wise far superior
