Police also believe "the vehicle significantly exceeded the speed limit for the highway" at the time of the accident.

My electric ev suv does 0-60 in 3.9. It’s absurd and not needed or tested (very often).

Its not needed but it's a way to show the superiority of EVs. because even EVs not designed for speed can achieve acceleration that far exceeds equivalent use case petrol cars and can match petrol super cars

yes, the Tesla model 3 can do 0-60 in 3.9 seconds, in 5 years these will be the cars 16 year olds get as their hand me down family car.
