      That it is massive means it needs to use more energy to accelerate. Choosing big vehicles where smaller ones will do is a real problem

        Also wrong. A big car doesn’t have to be heavy. Especially in comparison with old cars. It’s all about how you drive a car not what car. That “study” is biased as fuck.

          “doesn’t have to be” but in practice they in fact are. I wouldn’t call this a bias problem; it’s that people are making and selling and buying huge and inefficient vehicles.
