A child got by my small long range EV would be more likely to survive than one hit by a similar weight internal combustion vehicle as mine is a car (with proper pedestrian safety) and the other would be much higher and larger.

A child still cares that the front of the vehicle is low, that it doesn’t have a bull bar. A kid would be better off hit by an electric car than by a landcruiser

A 2t EV is much smaller than a 2t diesel
