I don’t see why not. Typically the biggest issue with an EV is weight, which in my mind tends to dilute what I would consider to be a sports car. I had an SL63 AMG that I absolutely loved but it was over 4,000 lb, it definitely didn’t drive like a sports car.

With that said, for me personally I consider the engine and a manual transmission to be a big part of the sports car experience. An EV sports car with no transmission, electric power steering, electric brakes, it would all be too synthetic for my liking. But I’m a Luddite and feel that way about many modern sports cars already. I think the R35 GTR is a very impressive car but it’s also a computer managing every aspect of your experience, no thanks. For me there’s an emotional aspect as well, and most high tech modern cars definitely come up short in that department.
