Are there any 9000 pound EVs other than the Hummer? That one is notable for its excess, most EVs are much lighter (just like most ICE cars are smaller and more efficient than humvees!)
- brucethemoose2 3y agoIt is an extreme example, but every pure EV I have seen is heavier than the ICE equivalent. The Model 3 3500-4000 lb, and its a small car and lighter than most other EVs.
- seanmcdirmid 3y agoThe Model 3 is a compact car @ 3,862 to 4,048 lbs, so it would comparable to an Accord rather than a Civic. A Honda accord is 3,239 to 3,280 lbs, so the Model 3 is obviously a few hundred pounds heavier (from 600 - 800 lbs).
- brucethemoose2 3y agoAnd I would assert that ~3250lb is rather porky for a compact ICE car, even though thats "normal" these days.
- seanmcdirmid 3y agoYa, I’m much more interested in a luxury civic class EV, but those don’t really exist yet. We just have the leaf, bolt, and mini in the states.
