You've never driven one have you? Electric motors are crazy powerful and it's all torque. My Prius can accelerate faster than my Tacoma. What you are seeing in people driving a Prius is trying to save gas by not accelerating hard. Just because they often don't doesn't mean they can't when it's needed.
