“And the tires they require are not your ordinary tire”
Huh?
I have a S60 Volvo and a Model 3 Tesla both are on 235/45R18s and they both happen to be on Pirelli and they absolutely are the identical tires same load rating same speed rating same tire id they numbers. The Model 3 is actually 100lbs lighter in curb weight vs the S60 and both are within one inch of each other is footprint shadow based on length and width so the identical exterior size. The Larger Model S still uses regular V or Z rated sedan tires one of my lawyers has a S plaid and it is not much heavier than the 7 series BMW it replaced with similar 20 inch tires on both.
The tire issue is for EV winter driving. There are snow tires specifically made for EV winter driving. I doubt many people swap out for snow tires unless they have to be prepared for driving in snowy conditions. I have an ICE car and wait until the roads are mostly clear before driving.
