Believe it or not, when not in eco mode on my Prius, it will push you back in the seat on full throttle with a fully charged battery. Course, not quite to the extent of what's shown in the video. That launching is nothing new to those that have electric motors in their vehicles. That kind of acceleration comes with a cost and that's battery drain. I wonder if it actually has that on the button..'insane mode'. That would be hilarious.

More like an electric golf cart!!!!!
At the last aviation job I had, another shop down the road had an old golf cart for running around, and they used some old "unserviceable" aircraft Ni-Cad batteries to replace the stock lead-acid deep-cycles. Made it a real hot-rod. One day a guy was riding in the rear and the driver floored it and it threw the rear rider off the cart, hit his head on the concrete, fractured his skull, severe brain damage, damned near died. He never recovered fully.
