No because EVs are typically huge.

The Hyundai Ioniq EV is the same size as the hybrid version and less than a 100 k heavier.

My Tesla S 70D weighs about the same as Mercedes S-class which is a similar size.

The typical EV where I live, Norway, is a Tesla Model 3 or a Volkswagen ID3. The first weighs 1 600 to 1 800 kg, the second 1 700 to 1 900 kg. That makes the Model 3 less than 200 kg heavier than my Rover 75 Connoisseur which was a similar size.

Not everyone has a Mercedes EQ SUV.
