This is a huge deal for aircraft. Not much for cars, as EVs are not carrying a lot of extra baggage that ICE cars require.
When was the last time you saw an ICE with both a trunk and a frunk? :)

Seconds ago -- there's one in my carport :-) (A 1993 Toyota MR2; it's mid-engine. The frunk is small, and completely filled by the spare tire and aftermarket stereo amp.)
Even monster SUV motors are only ~350 lbs. That doesn't include cooling, oil, accessories, or transmission but EV's have those too.
