A modern Mercedes SUV (2t) weights more than a Tesla model 3 (1.5t). Clickbait headline.
- 31337Logic 4y agoWe don't want/expect everyone to be driving a Mercedes SUV. We do want/expect everyone to be driving a Tesla 3 (or equivalent) in the near future. Not exactly clickbait headline but I get your point. There's probably a decent conversation worth having about this, somewhere in between those 2 extremes though.
- Kelteseth 4y agoJust checked, an electric Mercedes SUV even weights 3T [1]. So maybe just ban vehicles above a certain tonnage? [1]https://ev-database.org/car/1337/Mercedes-EQC-400-4MATIC https://ev-database.org/car/1337/Mercedes-EQC-400-4MATIC
