Leon,
That is indeed not a muscle car
Muscle cars often have many of the following characteristics:
- A large V8 engine in the most powerful configuration offered for a particular model
- Rear-wheel drive
- Being manufactured in the United States in the 1960s or early 1970s (the specific year range of 1964–1973 is sometimes used)
- A relatively lightweight two-door body (though opinions vary as to whether high-performance full-size cars, compacts, and pony cars qualify as muscle cars, and why a two-seat AMC AMX could be, but a two-seat Chevrolet Corvette was not. It is sometimes claimed that only mid-size cars can be considered muscle cars.).
- An affordable price (in 1970) of around US$2,500 (equivalent to $18,839 in 2022)[18].
- Focused on delivering performance on the street that could also be used for drag racing

Delia,Weeellll, this one would kick all their @$$es in the quarter mile. That's the definition of a muscle car. Indeed just about any EV would win against the 1970s muscle cars

Patsy,
In a drag race, that EV will accelerate faster from the start than any factory stock Muscle car. But, I believe the Muscle car will ultimately win if it were a mile long drag race. Especially, if it were a 1969 Mustang Boss 429. I had one in high school.
