I get it, if you're building a car to compete with a Dodge Hellcat, but why does Mr & Mrs Havisham need so much power? Is there something about electric vehicles, that demands this sort of power production?
She always has the option to buy the less powerful car just as you can with Dodge. She apparently chose not to. This has nothing to do with EVs, just the marketplace and freedom.
