Cars are at 80kw and weight of extra batteries is stopping too much more. But the latest tech believe they can get this to 400 kw with the same weight. That's about a 1300 mile range. Half that is plenty for a car, so they could also save a load of weight too. But 1300 miles is only the same as a 26 gallon tank in the average saloon - so 120 litres. Not that much.

So question becomes. If they can get a car to 400kw - would 800 or 1600 be enough to run a smaller tractor? Although charging it daily overnight would be a bit of a challenge too!
