Glen, you're wrong about prime movers; one of America's largest interstate
haulage companies is taking delivery of its first 25 electric long haul trucks
which can pull a heavier load, and up steeper gradients, than any of their
diesel trucks, and have a range of 1100kms. They are made by the Daimler group.
The market for EVs is not aimed at any particular customer sector, they have
just chosen this part of the transport market as the place to start. All types
of vehicles will be offered over the next two or three years, and utes and
large SUVs are certainly not immune, and off at a tangent a bit, electric
boats are just starting to hit the market in all sizes. As a matter of fact my
son in law has just converted his 12 metre cabin cruiser to electric.
