All these electric trucks at the end of the day were very low charge thus requiring hours of charging time.

Every single combustible engine can easily out distance ALL those numbers with less time to fill and at the end of the day turn around and make the return trip with no delay, just fill and go again.

Many trucks now will do just that, swapping drivers and make a round trip route, sorry but I do not see how this is a success for these trucks.

This will probably be highly successful in California (no surprise) as they’re banning diesel trucks, including in the port areas. So Cali docking ports for ships delivering freight to local Cali destinations will probably work very well.

I’m sure their air quality will quadruple and also, finally, save the planet ;p
