I have no idea what the break down of the market is, but there are a lot of trucks that never drive 'long haul'. Right now I'm seeing more and more electric trucks on the road making deliveries. They generally go from depots 10-20 miles outside of the city to into the city and deliver to a bunch of stores and business, and then back to the depot, where they can charge while waiting for the next load. That sort of work is perfect for electric trucks.

- dagw 5y agoMy point was that even if electric is completely useless for long haul trucking, that doesn't mean that electric trucks don't have a bright future.
