Bring back the El Camino! (lemmy.world)

Been thinking about how EV trucks seem to get more range than cars/SUVs. Is this because of the surface area of the vehicle compared to the weight (with an empty truck bed)? Would an unloaded EV El Camino theoretically get better “mileage” than something like a Bolt?

The longest range EVs are actually large sedans with huge batteries, see the model s plaid and lucid air (400 mile range).
