I "hope" for lighter cars in the same way I "hope" we start taking necessary drastic measures to combat climate change, which is by knowing that it won't happen and advocating for change anyway. On the other hand, I think maybe hoping that vehicles become no heavier than modern EVs is at least somewhat realistic.
