technically, it's an accelerator, but I've taken to calling it the "go pedal"
According to an old video by Doug Demuro, an early Volkswagen EV had the "play" and "stop" buttons on the accelerator and brake pedals, respectively.
"Go pedal" was Tesla's thing, it was part of their branding.
Well, fuck; now it's ruined...
How about "Vroom" and "Skrrch"?
Fast Footy?
Nyoom step.
