That’s right. And don’t get me wrong I’m a huge supporter of EVs and drive an EV9 and sometimes tow my horses with it. That’s how I know the range issue is potentially problematic. I never tow my horses very far so the EV9 works for me.

Unfortunately the big EVs still can’t tow a big load, say 2000ks+ very far. Torque isn’t a problem but range collapses more than a diesel due to the EVs much higher efficiency eg if you double the weight of your rig your range falls by more than half once aero is factored in. Once ranges get to 1/2

The climate clock keeps ticking. Always the best time for urgent action was 1980. Next best time is now.
