So, I'm going to apologize in advance for a bit of cynicism, but when I look at the speed chart...
...I very sincerely have to wonder how much time is being saved by going up to 186 MPH/300 KPH vs using 125 MPH units (or something a hair faster). Obviously they need a higher power-to-weight ratio than over in Florida and IIRC electrification is better for bad grades, but I'm just curious as to how much they're getting out of the shiny top speed numbers.
Of course, I'm also looking at this EB, and it looks like things are a bit gentler on them WB.
