    Love how he said 300km range to make it sound like a lot… to put it in to simple terms you couldn’t do 4 hour’s drive in it before it needed recharging. The concept of electric vehicles is fine but the technology and infrastructure in this country isn’t up to scratch to go full electric in another few years. Good vid tim

    • @deano3580
      @deano3580 Рік тому +10

      True is not a huge range. They will be used to pull lighter loads on set, predictable routes for now. Charging will have to be at the depot only. There is another video about Tesla semis being used on crisp haulage in California. The economics will also have to work out as haulage is a numbers business first and foremost.

      @@deano3580 I get what your saying and like I said the concept of all electric vehicles is great and I’m for it so long as the infrastructure and technology in terms of battery range gets better and places to charge improves. My main reason for not buying a electric car boils down to lack of range on a full charge.

    Hi Tim I was really really impressed by the electric volvo unit with 32 tonnes fully loaded. I have driven artic trucks for 35years . How advanced trucks have become in last 20 years is quite breathtaking to be honest. That volvo sure had your voice Tim. You looked very surprised at how it could pull .the only sad thing for owner operator would be cost to buy or even lease but jit is the future so bring it on. Now that long nose scania is a serious bit of kit loved the paint job a real work of art plus that huge beast of a v8 under the hood , A lot of money has been well spent on it a real eye opener an head Turner a great credit to its owner. Loved the video Tim

    I think they're great for local jobs. In Romania I've started seeing electric delivery vans.
    It's cool becase they can come on quiet streets (like mine) without waking up people. It just calls/messages you before arriving, to be outside and take the package. no noise, better for nightshift

    There's a recent Fully Charged vid about a company that has been converting existing trucks to electric and it uses a swappable battery system that can be done in just a few mins. I think while the technology is changing so quickly, that their method makes so much more sense than the enclosed system used in other vehicles like the Volvo!

    As a Person who worked for a Truck manufracturer and worked on Prototype and Experimental Vehicles,
    Not flaming,
    I can tell ye Electric Trucks (Electric vehicles in general are ineficent as fook the larger they get)
    are the WORST vehicles ever, If somthing breaks it breaks ye, because it's so expensive, ye get bankrupt,
    ye have tae go tae the Dealer, because no one ever is willing tae put a hand on it and those who dae chanrge a fortune,
    If ye have a breakdown ye Fooked also, cause:
    if its on fire ,theFiredepartment closes the road and watch it burning down,
    if ye stop in a tunnel ye ned a special wrecker tae pull it because, it could spark and short circut ,what could be lethal to the REC person,
    In general all Battery Electric Vehicles are the death of our Planet and should nae be hyped or favored
    (fact Euro6 is so clean,if ye light a match, it generates more emissions than the Diesel and they purify air in tunnels)
    apart from the fact that they will kill a lot of jobs and whole industry branches,
    what will cause a massive unimployment wave and class divission of poor and rich.

    At this moment in time, i think that the trailers should be the ones having batteries, a lot of them, capable of traversing 1000 miles in one go, on top of what the tractor truck is capable.
    The trailers are rented only and to be detached at a destination, and then charged up there.
    Ofc the shipping company will pay for the energy fill, just like they do for regular fuel in the present day trucks.
    The main advantage is that any warehouse out there has huge roofs that are gathering dust. Those could be filled to the brim with solar panels and thus generate FREE energy.
    The trailers will lose some payload capacity for the delivery, but this is the best measure to allow the semitrailer trucks to work efficiently, and as new battery techs get developed and enter consumer grade usage, simply swap out the present day gen with the new ones. Thus reducing the weight penalty.
