you cant get something from nothing.
I think they would be. Really, they are good at the towing aspect of towing, especially in the city. The range is the issue. The electric motor have a distinct power advantage over ICE, since they make max torque at all rpm.
I am not a mathematician or engineer......but it would seem to me that the power output of these vehicles is a bit much. I tow a 15k load pretty frequently with my 2015 6.0ls 3500 gm truck. It was rated for 322hp/380tq@4200 rpm. I tow in 4th gear cruising with a 1.15 to 1 gear (6l90e) With this load I can tow about 500 miles on a full tank of 66 gallons combined city and highway, it mostly highway , I get about 10.
Point being, if these new electric vehicles had the same power output as the like truck, their battery would last longer. The most power a electrical motor makes, the more it uses, I know this from new power tools, and the lies of brushless systems.
Maybe the trucks would increase range with a lower KW motor, and a slight gear reduction?
