It will never happen. At least not in this universe. Batteries just don't hold enough power. It takes a LOT of power to tow. It takes HUGE amounts of power to tow up hill.
They are only getting 40 miles out of an empty truck. It only takes around 40 or so HP to drive a truck like that down a flat road at 60 mph. Start towing a mid size trailer and now your talking 100 to 125 HP to do the same thing. Some reading about energy density. This is where diesel or even gasoline are kings of energy density.
These trucks would be nice for someone with a delivery service or a lawn care business or to pick up a 6 pack but that's about all.
