Those heavy construction equipments and giant dumper trucks already take benefit of the enhanced efficiency of a serial-hybrid layout, with a constant-speed ICE and the fewer losses of an electric drive compared to a conventional transmission which also has a greater weight penalty than it seems to do in an F-150.
