I’m embedding two presentations here that are relevant to ongoing electric vehicle discussions–especially with the emerging electric truck competition between various OEMs. They are each about 3.5 years old, but the fundamental underlying physics-based challenges still largely hold true as far as I can tell. As such, wanted to refloat them in the hope they contribute to ongoing debates by providing broader, brand and vehicle-agnostic perspective.

Presentation 2: EVs = Power-to-Weight Ratio of an Aircraft, Onboard Fuel of a Subcompact Car
