would it be possible to implement some sort of mechanic that slowly lowers electric motor output based on the battery's charge level? ev's are already simulated pretty well in this game, so adding this would be a cherry on top if possible
I dont think it actually works this way, because then your car could get slowed down by an unsafe amount.
it does, but it's not 1:1 (i.e., 70% battery does not equal 70% output) it only gets bad below like 10%, in modern electric cars they limit power output to save battery when it's low, but it's also kind of a natural side effect of motors
