The simple fact is, a car getting 30 MPG can go farther on 70 lbs of gasoline than a Model S with a 1200lb battery. That is the hurdle that EV's face regardless of how superior electric motors are. Add a sustained heavy load situation like towing and the difference is even greater.
Turtle claimed better diesel torque and the Cybertruck was weak.
I want to know why the diesel with all that power and torque is so slow at accelerating (loaded or not) compared to Cybertruck.
And pissed off neighbors with the noise and stink.:B
Newer diesels are pretty quiet and they don't stink.
I'm actually a fan of EV's for many applications, I'm just not willfully blind to their limitations.
