If you are going to spend big money, then

The Lucid Air Sapphire is a top-tier luxury electric sedan priced at approximately $249,000–$250,500 in the US. While not officially available in the UK with right-hand drive until 2026, this pricing places it just under £200,000 based on currency conversion. It features a 1,200+bhp tri-motor powertrain and is a direct competitor to high-performance EVs.

Now, these things are wicked fast

I could have a fantastic e Berlingo for each day of the week for that - AND the cash to run them too.

€49,000 list price for the MG IM5 performance, no puerile fake audio, no contest.

But is it fast Anything the embarrasses a Mclaren and a Tesla Plaid is mind numbing quick ...... and runs on free solar fuel .....

Unless someone has something really really quick and they are full on ready for the traffic light grand prix, there is not much that will pull away and reach legal speeds quicker than an X power with a ready to go for it driver.

Yep, that would probably do it. But he did say not much would pull away. That's definitely one of um.

If we are going to be pedantic the ex 30 twin, smart Brabus, Kia EV6 GT, seal excellence all available for 30-35k

Agree, they all would certainly give it a run, for its money. And all those plus the Tesla 3 Performance where on my list, as they are all nice motors, before i settled on the X Power. But all those are even more rarer then the X Power. So you'd rarely come across them. And all are more expensive, which is really what it boils down to. Would be interesting at the lights, and I would have a do, at um. Up until 60 anyway.

Tried to keep the proper expensive stuff out of it, but used there are some cracking cars. Although I'm not a huge fan of the smarts

Some good used deals

Almost 600 BHP for @salty

Agree. As used Performance EVs they are brilliant! As for the Smarts, the #1 Brabus is a bit non-discript, the #3 Brabus is more interesting. In Orange obviously.

How dare you question whether an eBerlingo is quick sir. You don’t even know me enough to know what numbs my mind

The 5N can be very touchy about battery condition ( as can Mg) for max power and it again is not that much faster off the line in the real world on public roads keeping it legal, on a track yes 5N would bury an X Power.
TBH we must all want our heads examining trying to use the available power the MG has on public roads, it’s 0 to 60 time is in that ‘who needs all that’ realm so trying to go even faster is insane.
I have had fast fossil cars in the past, plenty but the way the X Power launches is bananas.

A few comments in this You Tube test drive of another Nissan makes a few comments about the 0-60 times
