That said, I can't see how the power is going to fullfill me given that the power is directly coupled to road speed. The power hits hard, early (slow) and then falls rapidly as speed climbs. This is the result of not having a transmission with gears, which allows you to experience any portion of the motor's powerband at any speed by simply selecting different gears.
I just don't see how a single speed electric car is going to provide A) the high speed pulling power and B) the mechanical feedback I want. How can a sports car be fun without motor/driveline feedback?
I could, of course, be totally talking out my ass. But we'll see. My gut says that the M3P is a fun street car but won't satisfy, after some time, like a BMW M3.

Porsche solved that by putting 2-gears on the Taycan
