Electric cars are already known for great straight-line acceleration, and top-performance EVs like the Tesla Model S tend to dominate their combustion engine counterparts at the drag strip. But you don’t see as much coverage of EVs competing in autocross.
Because of this, many car fanatics tend to write off EVs as a “one trick pony.” But more EVs compete in autocross events than you'd think, although you’re more likely to see smaller, lightweight models with excellent handling and stickier tires. What you might not expect to see is a massive 6,600 lb Tesla Cybertruck competing against cars half its weight.
