Yep, probably just like a train...which can only negotiate inclines of 2%.
He's in trouble if he wants to go anywhere interesting.....except for Kansas or Nebraska.

It’s simply a matter of engineering. Larger turbine to charge the battery and a larger motor to drive the vehicle. It should be a simple (granted more expensive) matter to make a truck with greater range and power than the truck you drive now that gets 40 mpg driving and near 30 mpg towing.
Chorus Motors is making a motor to taxi jumbo jets that is the size of a water mellon. Newer batteries with greater power and storage are getting less expensive. Turbine engines are a mature product. It’s just a matter of time.
