A pathetic joke

Daimler Benz is all in the news after they introduced the E-Fuso Vision One. The medium duty hauler has a capacity of eleven tons and a range of 220 miles. In other words, this coal powered toy is a pathetic joke! A shipper would not be able to send a load from Kansas City to Manhattan and return with out recharging. Most electric vehicles require several hours  to recharge, and oh, by the way, short cycling them reduces battery life as does age. By contrast, a typical straight truck would only need to achieve 5mpg and have a 45 gallon fuel tank to surpass that. Oh, and it takes only about five minutes to pump 45 gallons of diesel. Most trucks carry more than 100 gallons and some contain closer to 200.
So if you gave the electric rig to a delivery driver, and he had a 8 hour day, if he traveled only 30 miles each hour, he would still come up short. This is nothing more than a virtue signaler for trendy lefties like Amazoo. This is not something for serious haulers.
Tesla's joke has been delayed yet again. Maybe by 9595 they will have  realistic offering.
