Well for now BEVs are still much heavier than ICE vehicles. It will take decades for them to finally become lighter than ICE vehicles.
In the meantime they’re still significantly cleaner
Some need them, and if we have to have them better they’re electric.
only in the US, where people love tanks and can't do math so they need to carry around 2000lbs of batteries.
Err... Batteries aren't exactly made of air elsewhere in the world either. BMW i4 is 2100 KG empty for the small battery single motor version, 2300 for bigger battery dual motor AWD. 440i with AWD is 1835.
