They can try to catch up but they won't. Not anytime soon.
The taycan is like a model 3 comparing to a plaid. Sure it has a "better" interior, or better driving dynamics, "better" build quality yada yada but i suppose that's where you pay the premium. For all those things while performance is secondary.
People say EV's are a one trick pony and it can only go fast straight yet not impressed with something like a plaid lol. Like the whole idea IS TO have the fastest production car on the road. Yeah i know people will say the sapphire. Where is it? How much is it? Is porsche going to put out their own version of the plaid in the taycan with over 1000hp? Who knows. How much? I'm guessing about the same price, or even more than the sapphire. Those are not realistic to most people.
Meanwhile with all these tesla's running around. Mid 11 second performances out there. Mid 10 second MS long ranges out there. Then your low 9 second plaids are running around crushing everything in sight.
Yes there is absolutely an audience for that lol. ICE performance cars are going to become more for weekend recreational usage sooner than we think. You'll only want to drive your ICE car just to have some noise in your life, without ever wanting to use it for performance. Your performance is your EV.
Soon.....
