Nope

I never quoted the weight of the Li.

Batteries are made of cells and a container to hold them.

In the case of Tesla also some control electronics for the cell trays, and a thermal management system.

Not to mention that the entire battery is a structural element of the car.

I gather by your statements that you have never seen the battery assembly in person.

Your ICE of equivalent power is heavier.
