You probably need to downshift and rev it up to above 4000rpm to get near peak torque. And torque is lower below and above that.
An electric motor can hit peak torque at 0rpm. And maintain that peak torque up to, idk, faster than you or I will ever drive a vehicle. It’s available instantly, always.
If you get a chance, try driving the slowest, most boring electric car you can find. It will surprise you.
I have the same sort of fun in my manual transmission gas car
