That is definitely heavy for a mid-size truck but that weight is well balanced at 51% to 49% front to rear. It also does not stop 60 miles per hour from coming in only 3.1 seconds on street tires. That is en route to a 1/4 mile sprint of 11.6 @ 110.8.
Just absurd numbers for a truck but keep in mind this is not the version with the even larger battery pack which you can expect to be a bit slower due to the weight.
Oh, it handles well too:
