Circling back, I have no issues for someone who is an enthusiast who wants more than 250HP. But to say 250HP isn't a lot is a bit out there, especially if there's also the concept of 350HP+ which on cursory glance eliminates certain models of Porches for being slugs. One of my favourite exotics is the Lotus Elise, so that's why I brought up power to weight vs raw HP.
I also question that 50-70 mph time for the V90 of 4.5 seconds. It makes no sense to me and seems to be ridiculously off. If the 0-60 mph time is 6.5 seconds or around 1.1 seconds per 10 mph from a stop, and then 50-70 mph at 4.5 seconds is closer to 2.2 seconds per 10 mph. I further got an AI response that 0-70 mph for the V90 T5 is 9.7 seconds, which also seems ridiculously off. So it takes 6.5 seconds to reach 60 mph and then an additional 3.2 seconds to reach 70 mph? There's no damn way. I am pretty sure it doesn't take me 4.5 seconds to go from 80-115 kmph in the van, let alone a car with better power to weight ratio.
I got a search result saying that a GTR R32 with 280 HP takes about 6 seconds from 0-60 and 1.6 seconds for 50-70 mph. These numbers make more sense to me than the stated V90 taking 4.5 seconds to do 50-70, which I agree is objectively abysmal, but logically also seems very inaccurate.
