@wolfgangpreier9160 I'd actually argue a diesel electric hybrid would be hugely beneficial in areas of Europe as you would be able to use the generator to power your house when the grid is offline. Tremendous value to the agriculture industry as a straight EV just doesn't have the capability as far as available power for an actual day of work and again the generator could be used to power tools when the inevitable breakdown happens in the middle of the field away from all infrastructure. It's not just about making an ev go further, the entire concept, while not new, is a long overdue application, far more efficient then either an ICE or pure EV, the entire package is a step change of advancement for the industry.

Love the Ukrainian Tractor Brigade cup! For those who don't know, early last year, Russian forces were abandoning tanks left, right, and centre because of how piss-poor their logistical planning was that they kept running out of fuel. Ukrainian farmers started "rescuing" these abandoned tanks using their tractors, and that started the meme. Ukraine is actually at tank parity with Russia now because of how many Russian tanks they've been able to recover, rebuild, and capture. Mostly T-64 and T-80, which aren't BAD tanks if you know proper support tactics, they're just no where near as fancy as an Abrams or Leopard.
