Hmmm ... another company redefining the laws of physics.
"20-35KW power rating" and "Zero fuel consumption"
Incredible. Perhaps HeraCON might be appropriate

Its says it can be recharged with a portable generator. lol. whats the point.
if you do that then your still burning fossil fuels. !!
may give you a good range though. keep the genny running to supply it with power and you could get a impressive range. lol
would it then be classed as a hybrid. lol

I think the portable generator is when the trip is longer than your batteries last. So you can reach your destination .

Should be economical to run, no maintenance , not very noisy. there is a reason to buy, as long they are reliable.
