This is one of the reasons I'm attracted to electric cars or even some of the hybrids that use electric power for performance. Their speed is in a totally different league from any combustion engine.
Last season there two Tesla Model3 Dual Motor cars would show up to our local autocross events. Not only was it really strange to watch a car run the course with no noise except for tire scrub, but the acceleration/speed it could achieve between elements was like something from a sci-fi movie. When you work the course for a while, your brain calibrates itself to knowing visually which cars/drivers are fast. The Model 3 was visually faster than anything else there...by a significant margin. The times the put up put hard stats to what we could all see. One of the drivers destroyed the entire paddock...several times...to include a purpose built, open wheel, race care that showed up once.
I think the technology is headed towards making a viable family hauler. Now the prices need to come down and the infrastructure needs to take a big step forward. The real question is whether anyone will be able to build a truly fun to drive car eclectic car with great handling for less than $100K. Lotus, Rimac, and Ferrari are headed that way, but we need something like my BRZ or the Miata/Vette/Supra/Nissan Z for those with more humble budgets.

Re: Can you Believe this is a Hyundai
I've only seen N cars in the baby blue color they offer. Does this paint color have pearl in it?
My wife's previous vehicle was a medium gray pearl. In blazing direct sunlight it was gray, but in other lighting conditions it would turn to a champaign, rose, or even pale blue. It was amazing how the pearl flakes would alter the appearance based on lighting conditions.

The Perf Blue on the Veloster N didn't appear to have pearl in it but not sure about the version on the EN though, haven't seen one to walk up on yet, same for the white offered.
