I was just searching and genuinely couldn't find it anymore. I distinctly remember watching an engineering explained video on it, too, but couldn't find it.

The thing is: heavier cars wear tires down more. This also applies to large SUVs and Pickups. The issue is that people only care about it when it's due to it being an EV.
