  • Are electric trucks ready to take over from diesel power?
    SEA Electric trucks are creating plenty of buzz around the world. So we decided to tour their manufactured facility in Melbourne Australia and they gave us the keys to their game-changing SEA 300 electric truck to test.

    What's the point in making a truck that's faster, safer, cleaner, quieter, and cheaper to run if it can only meet the needs of 90% of all truck trips?? Oh wait...

    I am not trying to be skeptical as we have one car and that's an EV but 250kms range without any load at the back doesn't seem very realistic but perhaps there is a market for it

    250kms not going to cut it in Oz sorry I wouldn`t male it home from some job sights, even city delivery drivers do more than that in a day, guess we gonna have to stick with Hybrids for now or carry a genie, maybe cover the roof of the pantech with solar ??

      ahahah yeah totally right Jase - this one basically rolled off the production line, so we didn't get to load it up but stay tuned we will hopefully test another one more comprehensively later on in the year mate

      But to me the only way this can work in real life is to have a removable cassette that slides off onto some sort of trolley with a A and B battery so while your out working the other cassette/ battery is charging and instead of have the truck parked up you only need to swap the batery and keep the truck moving.
      Just my opinion but hope you guys do well I love the concept. 🇦🇺👌🤠

      @@shannontodd4619 the other funny thing is its never going to charge off solar. 3 phase 415 400amp charging would need 3 quater acre house blocks full of revolving sun folowing panels and you would only get maybe 5 hrs charge a day in Melbourne.
      I have been playing with solar power for years and I also live off grid and it's not as easy as it sounds. Solar panels are getting better with higher amps and battery are able to charge quicker with higher amps but the cost of changing the batteries are the killer if you are pulling big amps out and then shoving big amps in quickly it kills the batery.

      EV Truck reviews do not mention price, mainly because nobody knows the price! But he should have mentioned the capacity and range.
      in the US, SEA Electric has three Classes
      Weight Class (GVWR): Class 4 (14,000-16,000 lbs); Class 5
      (16,001-19,500 lbs); Class 6 (19,501-26,000 lbs)
      Range: 170-200 miles
