BMW's head of M Performance says he wants the next M3 and M4 to be pure electric providing they exceed the performance of the current gasoline-powered models.
That’s not a great comparison since I’d categorize the Bolt as being fairly inefficient. It has poor aerodynamics (wrong shape and no flsf bottom) which results in a larger range loss when range matters most at interstate speeds.
The Bolt is efficient in city driving, but not otherwise. I’d say a better comparison would be between the Mach e and model Y where you do see a meaningful difference in efficiency.

Well there aren’t a great deal of slow EVs. Much less sedans at all.
It’s still similar in efficiency to a Model Y Performance.

It’s also incredibly slow by comparison. The point is that it’s a massive difference in performance and a comparably miniscule difference in efficiency.
That’s the beauty of electric vehicles; you can have both.

Bruh I haven’t made a single post. You are confused.
I already deleted it. I swiped the wrong post. Maybe a bug but probably a user error.
Yes but some EVs are more effecient than others.
There’s not really a significant difference unless you’re talking about aero and wheels/tires, and most sports cars are also fairly aerodynamic.
Look at the difference in efficiency between Model 3 Performance and a Chevy Bolt.
Tires can be swapped as needed. As can spoilers and other aero equipment to add down force at the track.
