Also don't forget the battery charging time. If your battery takes two days to charge, it will be show stopper to even start with.

- epistasis 9y agoWell I did say: "So clearly there would be some sort of swap program" Though my intent was mostly so that the capital cost could be amortized over many uses by independent truckers, rather than them having to take out an upfront loan for the massive cost of the battery. But it also makes the timeliness of charging a non-issue.
- kamaal 9y agoSwapping is an option if the batteries aren't owned by the drivers/truck owners. Otherwise its a huge issue. I don't want to buy a new truck and have my new battery swapped for a 5 years old battery, then have a break down somewhere and pay for it.
