My hypothesis is that in normal driving the EV with 30% extra weight will be using its brakes 90% less, making it beat the ICE version by a lot.

EV versus hybrid I couldn't say, it comes down to exactly how strong the hybrid regen is and how aggressively the owner brakes in comparison.

Why is your hypothesis so different from mine? How much use do you expect the EV brakes to get?
