It seems like the horsepower output of a car is more important than ever, mostly for bragging. It's not the only factor that affects acceleration, though.

We take the Hyundai Ioniq 5, Lucid Air, and Rivian R1T to the test track to determine how much slower an EV's acceleration gets as its battery percentage drops from 100 to nearly zero percent.

It can be alarming when your car is shaking during acceleration, and it's something that shouldn't be ignored. Here are the possible reasons this is happening.

A team of Swiss student engineers has set a new Guinness world record for acceleration by building and racing an electric racing car that went from zero to 100 km/h in 1.513 seconds.

Impressively, no large-scale production car, even one powered by a combustion engine, can achieve comparable acceleration. Thanks to the use of carbon fibre, it weighs just 168 kg.
