What is “instant torque “?

Whenever I hear people talk about acceleration in electric cars, they talk about the instant torque. I think I have an okay understanding of what torque is, but what does it mean for it to be “instant “?

Let me put it to you this way. When I put the pedal to the floor in my Jeep Cherokee, it doesn’t start speeding up for 2 full seconds. It’s a 6 cylinder so it has some power, but the computer fucks with everything to improve efficiency. So once you get it revved up… after a few seconds… then it has ok power.

Electric cars don’t have this issue.
