That and the increased road wear which grows exponentially (with the fourth power of axle weight) with the weight of the vehicle. That means a 2 ton car does 16 times more road damage than a 1 ton car. And before someone takes this to mean I prefer to not have EVs on the road, NO, I mean that this is a fact and we have to deal with it somehow while eliminating ICE. For example by making lower range EVs more attractive, since they already are acceptable in practice for a large proportion of road users. Going from ICE cars to ICE trucks, a common trend, is even worse in this regard since it adds significant emissions on top.
