Under powered? My Leaf will hit 90 faster than almost anything on the road.

Then that one would just be an Obama Car, not an underpowered Obama car.

Yes, you're underpowered. Acceleration doesn't equal power. You're doing little work, quickly. But your car likely isn't even capable of doing lots of work, slowly or at all.

What your light, quick car lacks is torque, which essentially translates into cargo capacity. Sure, it's great if all you do is drive to Starbucks and work and back home in the city, but anything more than that and you need something with more power.

"My Leaf will hit 90 faster than almost anything on the road."

That is so blatantly untrue as to be funny.

Zero to 60 in 10 seconds and tops out at 90? Wow, a real rocket ship ya got there.
