I don’t think people talk about hypothetical EV weight when they make such claims, the claims tend to revolve around EVs currently on the road. We should also try to discuss “waiting time” rather than range so that people start to think in these terms. My overall waiting time is much lower for my EV than my old diesel, despite the range of the EV being lower. Less time waiting to fill up on a weekly basis (0 mins while I sleep vs 5 mins filling up + journey time to the petrol station), less time defrosting in the winter (0 mins remote pre-heat vs 5+ scraping), less time waiting to fill up on long journeys (0 extra mins while I eat vs 5 extra mins filling up). These are all situation dependent of course, but making people adjust their thinking will help them get a more accurate picture of EV ownership.
