Also, for any high-end sports car you need to have phenomenal handling / road-hugging / cornering such that it is an absolute joy to drive. Electric cars are heavy, and I can't imagine how you can make one handle like a fine Italian sports car.

True...although they can handle surprisingly better than you’d think because the battery packs are very low, giving you very low center of gravity.

...but then there’s stopping distance too - low center of gravity doesn’t help, pure weight hurts.
