E-ZGO 53hp., 1999 E 430 sport, 2004 E 55, 2008 Tahoe LTZ on 24"s
But it's 0-60 is 4.2
Torque sounds good but the HP is only 313, I got excited too.

Yes, they are just leaving some room for us to put some variable amp control mods on it.. Then 0-60 in 2 sec. should be attainable..

0-60mp/h is 4.8sec according to the Motor Trend article or about the same as an E550....meh.

Can you imagine accidently mixing up the polarities during a jump start...Zap....!!

3300 ft lbs of torque sounds nice but until they develop batteries that can be charged at any gas station in less than 5 minutes, cars like these will be nothing more than an expensive toy. Also a Tesla's replacement battery costs over $30K, so I'm sure this Audi's will be similar if produced. You'd need a car loan just to replace the battery once it runs out of juice 4-5 years down the road.
