Reply to comment by aintbroke_dontfixit in Renault's heavy electric trucks are now available to order by Sorin61

I’m not sure what they’re saying, is it 6 x 540kWh = 300 Km?

That’s approximately 30 Tesla model S’s…. (with 390 miles per charge…)

Try loading up that Model S to capacity and see what the range becomes.

EVs are terrible at carrying cargo, especially if you tow something.

I don’t know how to calculate it, but if that’s 30 teslas worth of weight , it’s 30x4500= 135,000 lbs for 390 miles.

IDK….

That doesn't mean everything scales linearly.

Trucks are also way less aerodynamic than a fish faced Tesla.

Oh yeah, I have no idea how to camp are the two.

I’m not even sure how much weight an average truck carries
