At least if you have regenerative brakes. Otherwise weight matters in stop and go traffic quite a bit.

Are there any EVs without regenerative brakes? As soon as that technology matured, given how much geopolitics is about energy, it's surprising to me we didn't mandate it's usage.
With EVs, they all have regen, but also, efficiency for range purposes primarily matters at highway speeds. There isn't a lot of stop and go there.
