Can you show the total lifecycle math where you worked this all out, or are you just asserting it without evidence?
How much bigger and heavier is an electric SUV vs a regular one? How does a ModelY compare to a Mazda CX-5 for instance?
- dgfitz 3y agoFor that specific example: a model y weighs ~4450 lbs and a cx5 weighs ~3800, leaving a delta of ~3-4 grown adults in terms of weight.

- cuu508 3y agoAbout same size, Model Y is 33% heavier https://www.carsized.com/en/cars/compare/tesla-model-y-2021-suv-vs-mazda-cx-5-2017-suv/ https://www.carsized.com/en/cars/compare/tesla-model-y-2021-...
- kracejic 3y agoMazda CX-5 looks to be smaller than Model Y, so more fair comparison would be to CX-60 which seems to be similar size, where the difference between these two is under 20 kg according to carsized.
