Heavier vehicles do wear tires quicker though. Tires on a heavier vehicle that can easily spin the tires from a standstill every single time moreso.

And batteries are still heavy as fuck.

    My EV is much lighter that any SUV or half ton I see and in 4 years, I haven't spun my tires once. But keep slurring EVs tho, you fit right in with the hundreds of other tries I've seen over the last 10 years.

    BMW 5 series diesel 1935 KG empty, i5 2235 KG empty.

    Mercedes GLC diesel 2115 KG empty, EQC 2545 KG empty (Admittedly a tiny bit longer than the GLC, otherwise based on the same platform, same width)

    Show me which EV with a properly sized battery is lighter than its equivalent ICE counterpart.

    I haven't spun my tires once.

    Means you aren't driving, you're commuting.
