Here comes the competition. Range 500 km

They asked Scottie to test drive it but he had a prior commitment
and was forced to turn them down.

Well I drove 470 miles Saturday. My wife and I drove over to Beeville Texas to watch the Ring Of Fire eclipse.  Then hit a few antique places on the way back home. I didn't even burn near a tank of diesel in my Denali HD.

Typical lying EV cuck attempting to draw attention away from the fact it was the Lithium battery in this Diesel HYBRID range rover that started the fire not the diesel fuel itself. It is impossibile for a diesel fire to burn through concrete  :salute



If EV is so great right? Why do people like Mano feel the need to try and push it down everyone's throat? If a product is good you will not need any advertising.

I'm surprised nobody ever took the electric retarder hardware and used it as a motor/generator coupled with proper hybrid electronics to make a semi into a hybrid.     

It would not be a benefit on routes with very little elevation change but would pay off on mountanous routes.

... and the destruction of the land and polluting of the water that mining causes.
Oil and coal mining doesn't pollute?
