Electric vehicles

You'd hope so, but I'm less optimistic it won't spread.

When I read it, I did wonder "who's gallons", but even with US (economy) gallons, it looks pretty tragic.

Calling bullshit. No way that little cabinet has a 350kW engine and alternator inside. Looks more like about 30-40kW.

And that's the biggest issue with sifting the dross..... Both EV promoters and slanderers are allergic to providing proper numbers.

A few years back I’d done extensive comparison testing on a prototype 22t electric excavator. The same month at Plantworx, without introducing myself, I was talking to a sales rep for the same company, who told me that this exact prototype machine had a run time eight times what me and another operator had consistently measured. How I kept a straight face I’ll never know. With electric vehicles as with wars, the first casualty is the truth.
