Yeah, it’s framed horribly. But if the comic specified that it was something like a hummer (the EV form weighing x1.9 what a gas hummer does… it’s 9063lbs without any cargo) it would make more sense. All the issues scale with size and weight, and there is also personal cost.
If electric Kei cars were normal it would be a much better situation, though people are going to rightfully feel less safe with the idea of being in a small vehicle while on the same road with the increasing popularity of large trucks/SUVs (that is if Kei-class vehicles aren’t banned/restricted for that very reason).
