Electric motor optimisation or anything else has nothing to do with tyre adhesion though. You could have 1 million hp in an electric drive with instantaneous and linear delivery and it still needs to transfer this into drive through rubber to the ground. You can only accelerate at the maximum sustained level of G the tyre will provide and no more. Optimisation of electric motors and systems etc all sound very empowering but to improve the actual performance in a 0-60mph test, this needs a tyre with increased adhesion and a reprogramming to take advantage of the new increased limit.
This is why all cars of this ilk approach the same 0-60 time. The tyres ultimately provides X level of grip, the software enables X level of grip to be attained. Nothing else is particularly relevant.
Sadly this includes the driver and unfortunately, an accurate representation of what can be achieved under conditions where LC is not in control. Not that any of it matters of course.
So it all comes right back to what is possible in terms of sustained acceleration G from the tyre. At 2.2 seconds that equates to 1.24G sustained.
FWIW, the only 2.2s time I have seen is in fact the car and driver one. Have you another published result where the same 2.2s was attained?
Don't wish to sound rude but you talk crap. A certain amount of G is required to achieve a 0-60 of 2.2, Through the optimisation of the e-motor the 918 can achieve this.....This is why all cars of this ilk approach the same 0-60 time.

I guess I must be the only one that thinks: does it really matter...?
Sorry, its your thread....no not really unless you are into the 918, which like the 930 Turbo was for a while, the worlds fastest accelerating production car.....I spoke to Will Stone himself today about this car...

Malton has one coming into stock very soon. 30k miles. I'd expect it to be six figures.
SCoM are showing two this evening for sale !?Get it inspected by another specialist pre purchase would be my advice
