And, there are performance hybrids that will blow your socks off.
*************
My Lexus hybrid isn’t a “performance” hybrid it’s basically an “all arounder” and the V6+3 electric motors (one front and one at each rear wheel) give it a stronger 0-60 than a Cayenne V8.

The Acura RLX hybrid has the same arrangement. It does 0-60 in 5.1 sec, and 1/4 mile in 13.6 sec.

The otherwise identical RLX non-hybrid does 0-60 in 5.8 sec, and 1/4 mile in 15.7 sec.

I thought the RLX hybrid was sub-5 second for 0-60, but I apparently misremembered.
