How would you know, with as little experience with them as you do "twistys"? And since when is anyone silly enough to fall for "marketing"? You've just been taught to believe what you hear in state sponsored ChiCom media, and can't escape your indoctrination?

I've only owned my first EV for 9 years, so I can't say if they were fantastic 10 years ago. But 9 years ago, they certainly were, and after 171k miles it still is. A little hard on rear shocks for some reason (probably the addition weight of the battery sitting above the rear axle without a corresponding upgrade in suspension to take the weight..I've gone through 3 sets of rear shocks, like every 60k miles or so.
