It would be appropriate to say it had 150% of the torque, for a gain of 50%. These are the little words in math problems that make a big difference in getting a perfect SAT score or being forced to pay your way through college with all the schlub monkeys.

I wouldn't think the E-Ray would lose and cut power until its much more drained down to 30-20%. Otherwise people are going to be running around fully charged all the time just in case they run into a stop light race they have to do.

Thought they wouldn’t let the battery get below 20% as it’s not good for it to discharge any lower?

I believe this to be true. I encountered it yesterday, as I was testing Stealth Mode in a video. The V8 starts up right when the drive battery gets down to 21%, and the battery starts charging from there. In normal driving, it stays pretty well charged — above 70%, I'd say — most of the time.
