That might be true, but it’s a pretty much irrelevant point. For me, that once or twice a year I borrow my dad’s pickup. But what happens in 5 to 10 years when most of the new vehicle market converts to electric? What if we don’t magically develop better battery technology? Even if EV charging stations where as plentiful as gas stations that means a lot of dead time waiting for recharges every 100 miles.
North Carolina is a fairly large state, and from my house to a mountain destination (like Boone) is +80 miles. A 50 mile radius means I could go get some supplies from the local Home Depot, but that’s maxing out the “truck” utility part of this vehicle. I know plenty of people who tow small boats and trailers much farther than 50 miles at a time.
So we are going to add weight to haul more capacity? How far do you need to take that? 100kW battery pack? Are we talking $15k at a weight of 500-800 lbs? Why not just a petrol generator that could power the vehicle while in transport? Would pollution really be an issue - since you are only going to use it once or twice a year?
