“No affordable sports cars”
According to the reader “86×86”, there is a lack of affordable electric sports cars.
– I don’t care about manual gearboxes or engine noise, but I do care about being able to continue having fun on the track, he writes.
Among fossil cars, there are light sports cars in the style of the Mazda MX-5, Caterham 170R, and the Porsche 718 Boxster. When it comes to electric cars, the range is all the more limited.
The only electric cars that currently focus purely on driving pleasure are Pininfarina Battistathe Hyundai Ioniq 5 N, and the upcoming Porsche 718 EV.

“More noise”
The user Vertigo want electric cars to make more noise. However, the person concerned does not mean that all electric cars should be equipped with a V8, but that one should be aware of the fact that electric cars are not really quiet.
-The sound can be satisfying and futuristic but instead electric motors are designed to be as quiet as possible. It is therefore a matter of taking care of how electric motors actually sound, instead of offering fake sounds.
Having said that, a big part of the charm of an electric car is the fact that it doesn’t make much of a fuss, a trait many fossil cars try to emulate.
