EVs still have a long way to go to prove themselves on track, but the i4 is a step in the right direction.
Electric vehicles are hitting the market in record numbers, but they're far from well established at Lightning Lap. Theis just the third EV we've run, following a 2015 Tesla Model S and a 2020 Porsche Taycan Turbo S .
The i4 can more or less match an M3 in our regular acceleration and braking metrics, but a lap of VIR taxes the entire vehicle for three minutes, and the i4 showed signs of wilting. First, it won't make full power for a whole lap. An extremely cool out-lap helps, but while the i4 easily hummed along at its low, 128-mph top speed to start, at the finish line it only reached 116 mph, barely faster than the Carnival minivan.
