Nothing in the article say how many miles you get when towing a 10,000 pound equipment trailer, which is typical for the workman. I’m very skeptical of the torque issue when compared to a diesel truck. No one says what the cost is for a replacement battery package. No one says what the energy costs are that are related to charging the batteries, the cost of the special charging equipment and how long you have to wait for a charge up when you are in the middle of a work day.
Car & Driver estimates the range at max-towing capacity is likely to be roughly 100-mile.
