If one cares, for some strange reason, that weight matters any more, then the proper comparison would be the weight required by the gas powered
vehicle’s DRIVE TRAIN versus the EV’s DRIVE TRAIN, not the weight of gasoline versus battery. At any rate, Tesla has a 320 mile range car, which, along with its sub one hour recharge time, is totally competitive with gas powered vehicles around town and nearly so on trips. And it doesn’t weigh any more than those BMW’s and M-Bs that it competes against, and has far more interior space to boot.
