Another factor is that brake-regen is putting additional stress on two tires if it is a single motor car. So they get a lot of workout accel/regen if you aren't using your brakes as often and driving economically to regen as much power back as possible.
Plus how fun it is to get going in an EV leads to a lot of extra tire wear.
I've found that rotating my tires more often helps spread the wear out from having a single motor EV.
- cortesoft 4mo agoI can’t rotate my tires, because the front and back are different sizes. Luckily, I do have dual motor, at least…
- officeplant 4mo agoAh yeah, I avoid cars/vans I can't use in normal economic ways. I need them damn tires to last as long as possible. And base model trims for less shit to fail.
- ErroneousBosh 4mo agoI don't see why that would be worse than the very front-biased braking on conventional cars.
