This is the perfect car guy imo. The way he speaks and explains is just epic.

You missed a big part of the design of electric cars. Modern electric cars use 3 phase AC induction motors and the sophisticated control module takes the DC power of the battery bank and turns it into a variable 3 phase AC output. Induction motors create their maximum torque at rest. For us nerdy engineers we call this torque locked rotor. It’s just a way of saying the motor will produce it’s greatest torque when being hit with full line voltage from rest. We have ways to “soft start” motors in industrial applications with variable frequency drives and soft start controllers. Most industrial motors are “line start” which is just whacking them will full voltage. In a car this would either grenade the drivetrain or vaporize the tires. These design characteristics of electric motors tamed to manageable levels by the controllers gives electric cars their brutal acceleration.

The taycan would fit perfectly in the 0-60 video because the "1st' gear In the 2 gear transmission is basically just a launch gear! It only engages the 1st gear in launch mode to get a better 0-60. Under normal driving youre only ever in "2nd", the driving gear.

Peak power on ICE is mainly influenced by cam and can be anywhere in the rev range. RV/Truck cams put power down low, my Thunderbird SC peaks at 4200RPM but can rev to 6000RPM. Electric motors do have max RPM dictated by windings, voltage, and Hz, and they can still blow themselves apart. Centripetal force affects all rotating bodies no matter power source.

@JohannGambolputty22

Not the cam. Valve springs are more susceptible to float. Along with valve and piston construction Harmonics plays a bigger role also. Cam is hardly the issue as it has very low reciprocating mass.

This video is the perfect follow-up to the Automatic versus Manual transmission comparison video for acceleration. Electric vehicles now make that argument a moot point. And, by the way, those blistering acceleration numbers are achieved with less gear ratios than either transmission, even the Porsche! Save the manuals! Keep up the great work Jason!

Good video, but unfortunately though it's got some pretty glaring factual errors. Electric motors can output near peak torque across a broad range of rpm, NOT peak power as suggested in this video. This is obvious as to deliver peak power at very small rpm the torque would be ridiculous. Most electric motors used in EVs have essentially a constant torque in relation to motor phase currents, and their max speeds generally limited by battery voltage and motor back EMF (unless using special trickery and smart design, then they can put out more speed generally at the cost of some top end torque). At the end of the day it's torque at the wheels that causes you to accelerate

I agree, but mind you this is Jason Cammisa not Jason Fenske. Nonetheless, Camissa does a great job presenting everything in a super engaging way, and he did touch many technological elements in his presentation. On the other hand Fenske has nice videos explaining Power vs Torque and Electric vs ICE, and more importantly why an Electric motor performance is defined by max torque (or Max current) and an ICE engine performance is defined by Power. Fenske also explained why you need gears and play on the power power band to reach top acceleration for ICE. Depending on the design, some electric motors reach a top HP and then the the torque slowly goes down with RPM to maintain constant HP (Back EMF manipulation). That renders changing gears useless for electric cars as changing the gear will result with the same HP, while the electric motor can still maintain its high RPM. There are some other elements that could be discussed such as explaining CVTs and how they can have a drastic effect on efficiency, and why would they fail in high power applications, but that's going on another tangent for this 6 min video.

A lot of the reason is to do with the fact the EVs are faster of the line is that they heavier so they can put more of their power down, and the fact that they are all awd (at least most of them are) but f Take 2 cars the RS5 and a model 3, the model is more power and had more torque but It will cross the line pretty much dead even with an RS5. And evs with low battery won't be as fast as full battery. They don't work typically well in the cold and they are not too good around corners.evs don't make much power after they launch so torque and power numbers are irrelevant after the first few seconds because an Aventador can keep hitting peak power 7 times whilst an ev can only hit it once

Furthermore they are way more energy efficient meaning that they don't produce so much heat and as a result, they don't need a huge cooling system with big vents. Engineers of traditional supercars like Lamborghini or Bugatti are struggling to build their cars around those big engines. Tesla or Rimac on the other hand are not trouble themselves on the engine department as their main concern and area of improvement is the battery...

Jason, thank you for your continued excellence in your videos, I know it’s been said before, but thanks just the same.

As hard as it sounds, even the best designed and well engineered combustion engines only have an efficiency of 15-20%. 80% of the energy from lighting the gasoline/air mixture inside the cylinder is lost during the combustion process in form of heat.

Also you can very precisely control traction to the ground with an electric motor since it has such torque and fast response.

A house of cards

I had a bit of a tire advantage with bfg sportcomp 2's(not 200tw autocross cheater tires) vs whatever a bolt comes with, but I'm in a 9s 0-60 car vs 6s 0-60 of a Bolt. The Bolt had lots of power, but with fwd and all that weight it couldn't quite keep up with my dumb slow analog car which is nearly 1000lbs lighter. Sure a model 3 is pretty snappy all the time everywhere, but the cheaper electric cars aren't really that great even with instant power response.

I ordinarily enjoy your work, but I have a problem with your take on this one - you DON'T "get to have your cake and eat it too". You do a disservice by not acknowledging the downsides of current electric cars, especially weight & range (many areas of the country do not have convenient charging options). So there is a trade-off for the straight line acceleration.

to be fair on two points... I think that the comment was fair if one thinks strictly in terms of 0-60. He didn't say he was gonna go buy an EV, the implication (to me) was that he was simply going to go play in some EV's and feel the acceleration. And on the other end, given the topic, I imagine that EV people were waiting for some kind of subjective comment at the end about them being soul-less or whatever. The cake thing would add some balance. So... given the passion on both sides, I think he did pretty well here. :)

Cammisa is a gift to us all.

Amazing

There's a difference between being fast and being quick we all know electric cars are quicker than most super or hypercars because of the instant torque to the wheels from the battery but they don't have a lot of top-end pull as a supercar or hypercar would have. Especially around 140+mph or roll racing.

No matter how fast an EV can accelerate it has all the driver input, gratification and personal satisfaction of a Golf Cart.

Electric cars have a lot of advantages and have amazing performance but electric cars still lack energy density and the ability to charge quickly and will for a long time. You can fill up a car that can go 500+ miles in less than 5min , get a snack and take a piss. At current rates of charging and this is only at Tesla Superchargers you will spend 35+ minutes to go from mostly empty to mostly full. If you could half the charging time you will still have to spend about 5x times longer to "fill up" than an ICE engine car. Even taking an electric vehicle on a normal 5-8hr road trip right now drastically pushes out the time it takes to travel. Taking a road trip right now in an electric vehicle, especially cross country is like traveling by train.

If a car is slower than yours: it’s a slow shit box my car is so much better... If a car is faster than yours: nah dude it’s about the experience not speed
