There are some applications that EVs just won't work for-at least now. The agency I worked for required high clearance all wheel drive vehicles with 200+ mile range. Infrastructure for recharging far apart. Plus will the .gov be willing to pay for employees waiting around for the charge when fueling up with petroleum takes maybe 20 minutes including comfort trip for the driver and maybe a snack. Would turn a lot of 10-12 hour day trips in to overnight with lodging and per-diem costs.
Great idea but not quite ready for prime time to say the entire fleet.
