I would think that PRJ could provide you with a linear torque mapping for the accelerator.
I agree about the non-linearity, my other EV, a 2021 Volvo XC40, has way more aggressive and progressive torque delivery. Since it has no launch control, it gives full access to all available power all the time, which is why I’d probably like the Mapev tune.
I’ve had other ICE cars that had a linear aggressive torque response, in my case V8/manual, and they are not jerky or hard to control, and they don’t just give you all of the available power at tip in. It’s easier to experience it than to explain it.

OUR other EV is a Genesis GV60 Performance. Instead of Launch Control, it has a “Boost” button on the steering wheel that gives a 10-second 64HP boost. Interestingly, the button be pressed again as soon as the 10-second timer expires. This “feature” drives (ha!) me crazy - just give me all of the available power all the time and let me control it via the accelerator pedal - don’t hide the performance behind launch control or a special button that I have to remember to press! 🤬
