But electric motors are way more efficient than ICEs, and since there's only one speed, there are very few losses in EVs. Maybe 5%. Most likely more like 2-3% in the Plaid's case with the carbon-wrapped rotors. With a 98% efficiency for example, the Plaid would be putting down 999 hp from 1,020 at the battery. So using the same math, 1,096 hp (818 kw) at the battery would come out to 1,074 hp at the wheels. I think with this hp output, we'd be seeing close to 160 mph in the 1/4 mile trap vs. the 153 we're seeing now. I personally think this is either an error, or this is showing what could be unlocked with SW in the future.
