You do know you are commenting on a track car?
I suggest you re-read the article before wading in on RTA’s

How many friends and family have you lost on the roads? How many children’s funeral have you been to? How many more are you happy to have die or watch put in the ground?

It is not 2925 by the way, maybe you glasses are oily?

Get off your steam engine and wipe your oily glasses, it's 2025 pal

People will just kill themselves, and others, if we allow cars that accelerate too quickly on the roads.

Fine for a race track, just not on public roads where one should be able to travel safely.

Just for reference, the Rimac Nevera R is 2,107 hp with far greater track focused tech – I expect it to give the Nurburgring production car lap record a shake (6:29 – Mercedes AMG One)
Hopefully, BYD can improve the tyres so the U9 can put all that power to the road & challenge the record too.
