  They mention this later in the article. It's still about 6 tonnes for the battery to store as much effective energy as the diesel tank.

    It seemed like the author had moved on from EVs so I thought he was done, but okay. Should've finished I guess. The article still never accounts for the fact that motors+inverters are ~2 tonnes lighter than an engine+transmission.

      Or your reading comprehension is not good enough. I didn't have any problem finding the paragraph where he author goes into extra detail. Who can say.
