Mr Greenfield
Every time I’m out on the Hume Highway, I notice less then half of the trucks are arranged as a b double, though I haven’t been in 6 months so fuel prices might have changed that?
Freight trucks, makes sense to me that the b double arrangement is used, the small trailer is for the battery. Totally self contained, very easily hitched and unhitched. Then all that matters for interoperability between makes is system bus voltage, comms protocols and connectors.
Possibly feasible to retrofit an electric motor to the existing ICE prime mover, also possible to start incorporating motors into the trailer if the prime mover cannot house a large enough motor on a retrofit basis.
B double crash with 2 ton of lithium ion ablaze, enough to melt through bridge decks. Hmmm
