A Tesla S and a Ford Explorer weight the same and both sit on 20 inch alloy wheels with nearly identical tire patch foot prints. Look at the post above ^^^^
I am not a car buff. It is just something I frequently see:
“Whenever the drawbacks of electric vehicles are mentioned, weight is often high on the list. Electric cars are generally quite heavy: the average weight of a midsize car in the US is about 3,300 pounds, while the lightest version of the Tesla Model 3, for comparison, weighs a hefty 3,891 pounds.”
From car buzz.com this time. I just searched the idea and it was the first thing. We are talking about averages. The increased weights on our roads are a problem even though some trucks are indeed heavier.
