    Wouldn’t call the 3008 a sporty car. It’s a quick car, but not sporty. A Rolls Royce with 600bhp accelerates fast too, but i wouldn’t call that sporty either.

    The sportiest cars (in my opinion) on the scheme currently are the Coopers and probably the GTD/GTE. Maybe the ID3, which apparently even goes sideways if asked nicely.

    Also, it’s absolutely nonsense to equate “RPM” with “sporty”. You can rev the balls off of an S2000, that doesn’t mean that cars with a 7000rpm redline aren’t sporty. They don’t lend themselves to racetrack due to the way they deliver power (and having a heavier engine), that doesn’t mean they can’t be sporty. Or even competitive in race use, see Audi R10 TDI.
