I figured that someone would go a diesel/electric hybrid big rig before all electric. Sort of like how trains are powered now.
This is also one of those things that the infrastructure will have to be in place before it catches on with many over the road truckers. Terminal to terminal is one thing but cross country private loads are different.
Agreed. Elon addressed that though. The purchasers of the truck also purchase megachargers for installation at their participting depots. A sufficiently sized depot would allow for a robust roof solar installation providing power to recharge the trucks. Agreed that it is a ways out for private trucking. Flying J has some investing to do. :)
