Yes, much heavier. It wouldn’t be such a big problem if car sizes weren’t exploding, and if people didn’t demand such absurdly high battery ranges “just in case”, even though their daily commute is not 300 miles. Consumers also seem to want unnecessary power instead of efficiency, negating some of the benefits of the transition.
Fuckin hell I never thought that the tire pollution would increase. Makes sense because the batteries are heavy af right?

I imagine the increased torque of electric motors has something to do with it too. That extra power has to go somewhere
