I was SO SKEPTICAL about the semi truck world being a good fit for converting to EV at this point, even though I certainly see the benefits to the world. So glad to see these numbers prove the real world use case. I guess the next test is time? That is making sure the tech continues to work over the long haul (no pun intended).
Just think- this will only get better with improvements in battery tech. Increases in energy density, extreme weather performance, etc..
