Automakers are starting to think about thrills in the EV era, and we're here for it. // Back in 2010, Tesla unveiled a sleek little two-seater roadster with a bunch of batteries and loudly proclaimed EVs could be fun. It was a stark contrast to the hyper-efficient egg-shaped commuter EVs that came before it, and it was a catalyst for the modern electrification movement. Suddenly, EVs could be cool.In the decade that followed, automakers focused on families more than fun. The vast majority of EV shapes since have been crossovers and SUVs. We can’t fault the logic here, these are the cars that sell in volume - but with many of these models now on offer, manufacturers are starting to think about their next move... and It seems that fun is back on the menu.Don't get us wrong. You can absolutely have fun in an EV. The instant torque of electrification has truly democratized acceleration in ways that would have been hard to imagine just a few short years ago. Suddenly, 9,000-lb sport utility vehicles can leave Supercars looking sluggish in the quarter mile. That’s pretty fun. So are the wild new features that cars-as-software now enable, from video games to Netflix to karaoke. But that’s not really what we’re talking about. Please forgive us, we crave more than just speed in a straight line. We here at EV.Guide are car enthusiasts in the old-school tradition, and adore cars that make us feel an emotional connection, and a one-ness with the machine. Cars that are built to go fast not just in a straight line, but around corners, too. We love cars that excite us and communicate with us, offering feedback through the steering wheel and the chassis that drivers can use to understand what the car is doing underneath them. We're also fascinated by EVs as a technology, and the NEW types of fun and driving engagement they could enable. There are some bright spots currently. The Tesla Model 3 Performance has inspired a healthy aftermarket of performance modifications, and is not out of place at autocross or track days. The Porsche Taycan is very capable right out of the box. But we crave more, and it finally looks like we’re about to get it.So we thought we'd share the fun cars that we we have our eye on over the next few years - our Fun Forecast.
