Electric vehicles are very much not top-heavy. They are typically built with the batteries as a platform along the bottom, lowering their centers of gravity significantly. If anything this has become somewhat of a problem, road barriers aren't designed with such low centers of gravity in mind and testing has shown that some EVs tend to go under barriers when they hit them.
