It's gonna be interesting to see how they hold up in the real world conditions. Assuming it ever even makes it into production.
But if the thing works as well as they claim, it's gonna be a game changer in the short haul markets.

So it would be impossible to put one on one of these trucks? Is it against the law to add a small fuel tank for one of those heaters? Last time I checked most trucks don't have them anyway. That's why 90% of trucks are idling at the truck stops in the winter

Fuel onboard a 100% electric truck kind of defeats the purpose. But I don't know, which is why I asked.
