Stop trusting the hype! Electric vehicles hide a dirty secret behind their flashy specs. While your EV screams “Peak Horsepower,” that number only lasts seconds before thermal limits kick in. Real performance is measured by *Sustained Horsepower*—the power that actually survives a thirty-minute drive. Don’t get fooled by marketing; check the sustained rating before you buy your next electric beast.
