The Truck seems very interesting, if real, they claim it is [0]
With the range of 1000 miles A - it can provide enough distance for arriving at a cargo bay; B - enough distance before the driver is required to rest (at 50mph that's about 20 hours of driving) and can recharge the truck.
Aside from the obvious environmental impact (as long as the electric source is not coal), an electric truck makes it an easier pathway for having autonomous trucking.
