How far can your truck tow anything? We run a motorcycle race team in Spain and going electric for our logistics vehicles would be a nightmare. Currently we can get from Barcelona to Jerez in a day. With electric that becomes 2 days, sometimes three. Several hours to charge a vehicle is a huge amount of time waiting around, especially when paying drivers by the hour, not to mention the electric vehicles are so heavy that it means a 3500kg electric van doesn’t have nearly the same payload as the diesel equivalent. So we either need bigger vehicles (requiring a commercial license and more expense) or we have to have more vehicles to move the same stuff. |
