than most petro cause a, showing how much the technology has evolved, but present biden's big ambition to make them the majority sellers may still hit some problems as fell of our reports. michelle, everyone's big on electric, this year. e. v's, everywhere you look here at motor bela. the future is electric. the big announcements. big names from the staples through the absolute beasts. if ever there was a vehicle that looks like it means business. there you go. and this brand only makes evey's, which just goes to show, if they can do it successfully and make it their main business model than so can all of these guys. i'm off, you can't move for them here. they're moving. oh job, i didn't an easy found giving this one the presidential approval back in may. the 2nd. how full trying to show e. v. 's. all for every one to 64 seconds in a truck. surely this is going to run the battery out very quickly. if you drive like this. but no, this truck has plenty of range, 300 miles. the aptly named lightning showing just how far electric come a lot of people don't expect this truck to handle this. well, right, so with the battery, the suspension, all the work we've done handles almost like a call the software to the swedish firm with its global map database that feeds real time information into e. v.
