i can guarantee you that it will be much faster in an 1/8 mile and 1/4 mile than most petrol based cars will be, and it will be easier to mod and maintain because you only have 1 moving part

you should look up white zombie, that car is a 10sec all electric datsun 510

oh and if you think turbo diesel is slow, clearly you havent driven the audi suv with the v12 twin turbo diesel making over 700hp

How do I drive across the country in an electric car ? They take hours to charge... I like going on epic road trips and I cna't do that in an electric sports car so no thank you .

ok, than wouldnt diesel be the better choice if they made a turbo diesel Z?

diesel will give you more torque and it will take you twice as far as petrol ever will

and you act as if you wouldnt stop at a hotel or something on your "epic road trip" which btw you can charge your car up there over night

Oh wow just saw this post. I greatly disagree. The Z isn't made for pure performance, it's made to be a pure sportscar. I don't care if electric would yield better anything. It would dilute the Z name and what it stands for. I believe if it is electric, a lot of the ppl here who said next gen z will change their mind.
Sorry. Back on topic..
