Side rant, but this is happening more and more.
EVs have no business having instant Ferarri performance when you briefly brush the accelerator pedal with a feather.
We’re not used to having this instant reaction from the accelerator pedal, but we are from the brake pedal.
And the fix is so simple: don’t allow “instant takeoff” in a built up areas geofence.
You can just change the setting in the car. I put mine on the slower mode and the acceleration and pedal response is muted.
