As a former owner of late 80's to early 90's honda shitboxes, those cars were death traps. They were super light with next to no thought on safety compared to what you buy these days (ev or otherwise).
I owned a 1988 Honda CRX si and it weight approximately 1800 lbs according to the internets. The 2023 civic would crush that CRX as it comes in at roughly 3000 lbs. The Tesla model 3 is 3850-4000 lbs. EV Trucks are crazy heavy but it's important to remember that the batteries are usually in the frame of the vehicle which is at the lowest point in the vehicles body, once the rednecks get over their small dicks and start buying the ev trucks and lifting them is where the trucks will turn into a cruise missile when they get in an accident.
