    Yes. Cue in all the EV eco bullshit tires used on EVs that skid around already in good conditions and are absolutely horrible in bad conditions. All for sake of efficiency.

      Idk I had a Tesla M3 with stock tires and because of the center of gravity being so low the car had great grip even with fast sharp corners. Seems like you just hate EV’s for whatever reason and take it out whatever way you can

        There are some pretty annoying EVs out there (example bmw i3). It was delightful to drive, but as soon as a single rain droplet fell from the sky, traction control has a lot of hard work

          I did drive a VW id.4 but with how high and huge that thing is the handling was horrible. From all the EV’s I’ve been able to drive/sit in the only good ones were currently Tesla and Skoda.

          It’s not an EV thing, it’s a carmaker (and car type) thing.

          I very much believe EV’s are the future, I just think the EU EV’s have slacked a lot because they were so adamant at staying with fuel based engines and because of that a lot of people think EV’s are so much worse, while the good and decently affordable EV’s sadly come from countries we just don’t really like (US and China)

            I only know one electric skoda (Enyaq, the citigo was a fleeting experiment). And the Enyaq is the exact same car as the ID.4 except the interior. Same battery, drive train suspensión, brakes, etc. Same for the Audi Q4. So it seems to me that your subjective feel is not very accurate.

        Usually it helps for traction if car weighs 300 tons…

        Also no, it’s not me hating on EVs, it’s because Car makers stick lowest rolling resistance tires to improve efficiency and lower rolling resistance also means they grip asphalt poorly.
