It's still going to take a pickup around 22 to 30 kw to maintain highway speed. I would say closer to 3kw because my leaf uses about 20kw to maintain 74mph.
So there is some way to recover energy used to over come air drag?
I would love to see this.
I said $10,000 because the plug in hybrid Hyundai sonata is about $10,000 more than the gas only version, has a 9.8kwh pack and only a 40 or 50hp electric motor.
So I think a $10,000 price increase for a hybrid truck with a 10kwh pack is very realistic.
