With the right run an Edison Motors truck could potentially operate with no external energy source.
From article
"More energy is generated during the descent with the larger weight than is required for the journey back to the top [empty]."

Even when our trucks rely on electricity from the generator they are able to benefit from increased efficiency of electric drivetrains by allowing the engine to run at peak efficiency reducing fuel consumption and emissions

We believe being a company founded by a truck driver, as well as majority of the directors being truck drivers makes us very different than any other manufacturer. We know the reality of the industry and the needs.

Edison Motors is including a range extender diesel generator in our initial electric trucks to mitigate range anxiety allowing the trucking industry to take advantage of efficiencies of EV technology before sufficient charging infrastructure becomes available.
@KBlazeBaum
🚗Range anxiety consistently ranks among Canadians as one of the top barriers to EV adoption. Drivers are worried that a charge won’t be there when they need it, or that it won’t be convenient.
