Probably springs and shocks as well. (I hope the batteries are mounted low down into the chassis)
Then imagine, god forbid you had an accident in one of these...

Excellent point. One most won't think about. Perhaps the batteries up front act as a battering ram. Is any room left in the frunk?
Seems to me that the Tesla, Leaf, i3, whatever is the better choice. ... batteries down low, space for stuff, MUCH better crash worthiness.
