Electric vehicles. Small diesel generator to charge??

Ok , this may seem crazy, but I have seen diesel generators run for very long periods on small amount of fuel. Why not have a small diesel generator to run an inverter to charge batterys at any time ...

I assume you mean similar to diesel electric locomotives where the only motive power is from electric motors with electric power supplied by diesel generator.

I would guess if it were feasible someone would have already tried it.
