"but can you push them if the battery is dead ? LOL

Not always the case. I read a post this morning that showed when an EV's battery dies and the electronic emergency break is on, the car is almost impossible to move. I guess that's another undocumented feature.

“I read a post this morning that showed when an EV’s battery dies and the electronic emergency break is on, the car is almost impossible to move. I guess that’s another undocumented feature.”

Two batteries. One for power to the wheeled and a 12v for systems like the parking brake. Emergency brake is a misnomer.

The 12v can be jumped or charged as with any car.
