[QUOTE="14 tuxblack raptor, post: 1615530, member: 37472"] With EV trucks getting closer to being released and Extreme E racing starting next week what type of range does everything think we'll see from EVs off-road? I haven't been able to find any sort of info out there about Wh/mile when off-road. In my opinion I don't think we'll see any of the EV trucks being released making it off-road in the real world, maybe if they're taken to the desert on a trailer. It would be cool to hear some opinions on what type of efficiency every thinks we'll see from the EV trucks hitting the market that are being advertised as off-road capable. I think people will take them to fire roads behind their house and that's it. I also think that off-roading with such high Wh/mile consumption that it will actually cost more in 'fuel' to run an EV off-road than it would an ICE. Say living in LA, currently 21cents/kWH, the time to get to the desert with recharging, then with how many times and how quickly you'd have to recharge once off-roading, not even considering where the nearest charge station would be in the desert, it wouldn't be practical or even possible to off-road an EV truck. We will see Extreme E racing soon and what their range to recharging looks like. They are racing on 10 mile loops. I found one article so far where a driver was saying they can kill the 56kWh battery in 10 minutes(uphill+sand). Otherwise I haven't been able to find any other info. Here's some of the EV trucks and their battery size. Also with the extra gear, supplies, weight, terrain, and temperatures for going off-road will further decrease the efficiency of the range they're saying these EV will get. Hummer EV: 200kWh (350 mile range) Cyber Truck: 200kWh (500 mile range) Rivian EV: 180kWh (400 mile range) Bollinger EV: 175kWh (200 mile range) I'm assuming the companies are claiming range based off projected Wh/mile consumption Current EV economy figures Excellent- 190/225 Wh/mile Good- 226/260 Wh/mile So so- 261/295 Wh/mile Poor- 296+ Wh/mile 296+ Wh/mile is going to be 0-2.9 kWh/mile. I think that off-road the consumption will be much higher than 300 Wh/mile. These trucks are also going to be extremely heavy. The Extreme E SUV is 3600 lbs, which these trucks will be close to double that and even more. [/QUOTE]
