Sporty Electric Cars: Performance and Thrills Guaranteed

Did you think electric cars were synonymous with tranquility? Sporty electric cars prove otherwise. With accelerations that surpass those of thermal supercars, instant torque, and precise handling, these models are redefining automotive performance. From the Tesla Model 3 Performance at €54,878 to the Porsche Taycan Turbo GT at €248,000, the French market offers a comprehensive range. But one question remains: Can you really feel the same emotions as behind the wheel of a thermal sports car?

Why Choose a Sporty Electric Car?

The instant torque delivered by electric motors provides stunning acceleration from the first turn of the wheel, with no lag. The placement of batteries in the floor lowers the center of gravity, improving handling and reducing body roll in corners. Performance levels now match those of the greatest thermal references.

The relative silence allows you to better perceive the road, weight transfers, and the limit of grip. This new approach to driving surprises even the most skeptical enthusiasts. The weight of the batteries, often criticized, is offset by an optimized architecture and ultra-precise electronic systems.

Formula E: The Reference Electric Championship

The twelfth season of the ABB FIA Formula E Championship will include 18 races. The championship will begin on December 6, 2025, in São Paulo, before concluding with a double header in London on August 15 and 16, 2026. The Miami race will take place on the same circuit as Formula 1. Monaco will host a double race in May.

To date, Formula E remains the most represented and best-known 100% electric championship internationally. However, motorsport remains largely dominated by thermal engines with Formula 1, MotoGP, WEC, or WRC rally. Habits will gradually change in the coming years with the emergence of new electric disciplines and the evolution of mentalities.
