A 90HP Volkswagen will do that. Nobody needs 200HP to keep up with traffic.

The people who drive performance cars do. I never had a problem in my old Geo metro making 50hp - except when following a corvette - they always waiting until the end to accelerate and I needed the whole ramp to get up to speed. It works for them because they had enough power for that trick.
