I worry that the benefits of electric cars as a whole are being undercut by the size of new ones. I'm not saying SUVs don't have a place, I am saying that perhaps a standard-sized sedan is potentially more comfortable, more energy efficient, and lighter. This is a criticism of the car industry at the moment as a whole, but I do not understand this obsession with big, high cars.

The battery pack in the Hummer EV is the size of 3 other EV batteries combined.

You could have 3 regular EVs or 1 Hummer.
