(4000/3500)^4 = 1.70 so that 70% more road damage with a fleet of EVs. I don't know how high Vehicle Registration is in your state, and Fuel Tax, but it does

(4000/3500)^4 = 1.70 so that 70% more road damage with a fleet of EVs. I don't know how high Vehicle Registration is in your state, and Fuel Tax, but it does add up to a surprising amount that mostly goes into rebuilding highway infrastructure. So it does need to be accounted for. Our transportation highway network is a system.

- mperham 4y agoYou’re assuming that most road damage comes from passenger cars. In fact most road damage comes from large semis weighing 20,000+ pounds. The worst roads are almost always freight corrridors
- bergenty 4y agoI was wrong the Model 3 also weighs 3500lbs. With your thinking we shouldn’t have any trucks or pickups on the road. The Ford F-150 is the most selling vehicle of all time and it’s massive.
