I understood the Nucleon was a commissioned government concept project.
Chrysler turbine used about twice the fuel as a big block of the day to putt around town.
Unless the interstates have overhead power to match the trolley poles on the EV truck I doubt it will work for cross country shipping. Although it might be time to ship more by rail for long distance. EV trucks should be a good fit for many local deliveries. Down time for charging will need to be coordinated with loading and unloading. Some battery may need to be in the trailer reducing load volume and weight. Many compromises to eliminate diesel. Economics will eventually determine success.
I look forward to a plug-in hybrid MH or pick-up in the future.
