Even my Volt can do a burnout, every EV is going to have a lot of torque. But in this price range, a Kia ev6 or a Ford Mach-e would be better choices. You also have the Nissan Leaf or the Chevy Bolt for fwd options.
It's not so much the burnout that I enjoy (I'd rather not keep buying tires 😅) as sustained actual acceleration. Which means ideally two powered axles for traction, and at least from what I've read it's hard to beat a model 3 performance for the price. Especially since it comes under the cap for a $7500 tax credit.
Maybe you should check out the polestar 2 if you're interested in a sporty sedan. I seriously considered one of those but couldn't find a good 2" receiver for it.
I've got a MYLR and the sustained acceleration is terrifying, its very seldom that I floor it.
The M3P must be bonkers since its lighter, lower and more powerful.
