The world of performance EVs is growing, with many brands offering sportier variations of current models.
Even EVs in segments that aren’t traditionally considered performance-oriented can hang with the fastest sports cars out there.
A great example is the Rivian R1T, which can embarrass top supercars.

However, in the world of EVs, everything moves very fast (literally!
), and the future of high-performance EVs promises even more spectacular performance.
The Evija has almost too many technological wonders to list, but we’ll give it a shot anyway.

This hyper-performance EVtakes a page fromthe amazing Rivian R1T’s engineering playbook by implementing four electric motors.
If you want crazy numbers, the Evija delivers.
Both of these super sedans make over 1,000 hp, and they’re both rammed full of advanced technology.
They also feature drive units that boast not one, not two, but three electric motors.
Zero to 60 mph in less than two seconds.
Zero to 100 mph in less than four seconds.
The standing quarter mile in less than nine seconds.
It will be very interesting to see the performance figures for the fastest version of the Model S replacement.
The price is definitely one place where the Lucid does NOT have the Tesla beat.
Regardless, this car will most likely sell very well.
Of course, the Tesla Roadster still promises incredible performance.
One look atTesla’s Roadsterreveals breathtaking numbers, especially the 8.8 second quarter mile time.
Its 620 miles range would also solidify the Roadster as the standard-bearer in terms of electric vehicle range.
The current crop of electric vehicles cannot compete with the range Tesla is promising on its Roadster.
Tesla also promises 10,000 Nm of earth-shattering torque at the wheels, guaranteed to scare your passengers at will.
This enormous pickup truck will produce up to 754 HP and 785 lb-ft of torque.
Just in case you’re wondering, the 0-60 mph time is less than 4.5 seconds, according toChevy.
The range isn’t too shabby either, at 400 miles.
Now, the performance car world is on notice thanks to the onslaught of performance EVs hitting the market.
