When it comes to high-powered V-8 SUVs, there are plenty of options to choose from. However, a new wave of electric SUVs is giving traditional models a run for their money. Take, for example, the Dodge Durango SRT Hellcat with its impressive 6.2-liter supercharged Hemi V8 engine. While it can hit 60 mph in 3.5 seconds, there are electric SUVs on the market that can go even faster.
So, what sets electric SUVs apart in terms of acceleration? The key lies in their electric motors, which provide instant torque. Unlike traditional combustion engines that require time to shift gears and build power, electric motors deliver instant acceleration as soon as the driver hits the accelerator pedal.
Based on data from various automakers and trusted sources like Road & Track and MotorTrend, we have compiled a list of ten electric SUVs that offer faster 0-60 mph acceleration times compared to most V-8 SUVs, including the Dodge Durango SRT Hellcat.
