    Yep I bet they’ll keep a handful of diesel trucks for specific occasions and emergencies.

      Hopefully in a few years they’ll have some range extender carts the bus could pull behind it.

        Given the size of the bus you could fit a huge ass battery in there.

          Yeah, but you don’t always need such a large battery, and that takes way from the storage area, which is important for long trips.

            Maybe an aux battery that can be slid in the frame?
