Please stop pretending that gasoline motors don't idle. They do. They provide instant torque as soon as the gas pedal is pressed. More than most cars need, or can put to the ground. In a race situation, the driver uses that pedal to put the engine in the optimal torque spot. What happens to the torque in an electric car as its one speed transmission increases RPMs?
