Where are they going to get the electricity to poser those trucks? Certainly not solar or wind, and the envirowhackos have made building new nuclear power plants practically impossible. That leaves coal, gas, and hydroelectric and there are only so many places to build dams.

Coal, Gas, and Oil power plants are more efficient than a car/truck engine. In addition, as new efficiency tech comes online, that can be included in an existing power plant whereas it cannot be included in an existing car. This avoids the question of the massive costs of setting up infrastructure to supply all of these trucks with power and what to do with that infrastructure when the next cool idea comes along.

“as new efficiency tech comes online”

Like what? My thought is that power plant efficiency will be reduced to meet tougher emission standards.

But disregarding that, give an efficiency booster that’s good for more than a percent or two.

Yep, it would cost hundreds of billions of dollars in infrastructure.
