You would think that electric tractors would have been much ahead of electric cars. Problem with electric cars is the batteries weigh so much--- which wouldn't bother a tractor at all, Secondly in a electric car you would be looking for a charging station in unfamiliar country that is if you were on a trip, with a tractor you know exactly where the charging station is. With cars the charging time is a major problem with people being very impatient-- with a tractor there is usually lots of time to recharge -- and if there isn't -- the battery pack could be swapped out for fresh batteries -- I dont think a farmer would mind doing that but take the average person on the free way in LA and they would not likely even know what a battery was let alone swap it out. Another draw back with electric cars is heating the cabin in the winter-- which drastically shortens there range. With tractors they dont spend long hours for the most part working in the winter--- usually just chores like moving bales or moving snow and the like. All that electricity that usually gets burnt up heating the engine block in the winter can now be used for charging the batteries--- WIN__ WIN
