Paff. Why lug around an IC engine if you don’t have to? The fast ones after pure electric.

Pah. ICE cars get better power to weight and efficiency as they're driven, EVs get worse. Consequence of an ICE losing weight as fuel is consumed, but EVs having to haul heavy batteries regardless of charge. Which I guess is a bit of a non-standard efficiency metric, but may be more relevant for Tesla semis. So the impact of semi's weight would presumably impact on the maximum loads hauled.
