In this episode, we dive into one of the most common questions drivers have: why are cars built to go much faster than the legal speed limits? We explore some fascinating topics that reveal the surprising reasons behind this. Here are the top 5 discussion points:
- Why cars need extra speed for real-world driving conditions like hills and wind resistance.
- The concept of an engine power curve and how it affects a car's performance.
- The psychology behind why people resist speed limits and the role it plays in car design.
- The use of speed limiters and why some cars are capped at 130 mph or more.
- How fuel efficiency standards shape how fast a car can really go.
