Electric trucks are closer than you think. Very likely, trucks will be autonomous and will close together nose to tail on motorways and will really be road trains. Only needing humans to open and close the trailer doors. Within five years we will see something similar, Ten years and truck driving will be one of those jobs destined to the past.
The idea of electric driverless trucks maybe a good idea but at what cost ? more humans loosing a job for starters, people need to earn money to live not everyone is able or more likely wants to sit behind a bloody computer screen for a job !
Ten years ? I cant see that ! Electric cars are already showing us what a problem they can be with regards the batteries and breakdowns. Get an electric road train stuck on a motorway that you can't shift and !........
So called progress isn't necessarily a good thing as the more they push humans out of the picture we will become just fat blobs interwoven into a settee watching a bloody screen trying to survive on minimal benefits if any ? especially with the likes of Racheal Reaves running it
