That would still make them cleaner than a diesel ICE truck. Since the generator can continuously run at a constant rpm where the engine burns the fuel efficiently. So that would also generate the least particulate matter since the burn would be cleaner.
There is a Canadian company called Edison who will retrofit a truck into a hybrid. They add two electric axle engines and convert the IC engine into a generator to charge the batteries.

With all the ICE cars in use, I would love to see hybrid retrofitting go mainstream
It’d be a great repair for cars that need a new engine block.
