> I was talking about safety for the drivers in the car that collide with the EV. They are less safe with EVs on the road. So is a Model T. But we aren’t all still driving Model Ts, are we? Technology improves, and of course older cars are less safe. There is a weight difference, but it’s no different from that of an SUV vs. a Corolla. > Efficiency above 80% is clearly worse than below 80%. I drove 30k miles in a Tesla on road trips and saw that consistently. Depends on the car, but the reason for this is almost solely because you lose regenerative breaking at high SOC. That’s less efficient, but not less efficient than an ICE car, and you only do it on road trips, which don’t happen often.
