Yep. All EVs will be heavy. Lithium batteries are heavy! Brushless motors make tons of power. Play with RC cars... I have some 1/10th scale stuff that runs on 12 volt lithium polymer packs.VERY much like the new EVs. Batteries are heavy and the cars are VERY fast. I have a couple cars that will go well over 60mph and there are guys going well over 160 mph!
