I wish we had better EV towing vehicles in the US… my lightning is just too fucking big, but it’s the only thing that tows a horse trailer that isn’t a Model X (100K$ starting, 40K$ more than I paid for the Lightning) or a Model Y (barely useable; custom built “euro” trailer required to stay within towing capacity).
They are so terrible
Once they run over a few toddlers and cause severe injury in collisions, the insurance premiums will go sky high. And maybe governments will impose greater safety requirements.
Please let us yanks know how to do the same after you figure this out.
Fuck all trucks.
