What fraction of the total semi truck traveled miles are on those short routes?

Also, what percentage of semi trucks are only utilized on these short routes?

A big thing in fleets is flexibility, and if you're requiring a much larger fleet, or two fleets, to do the same job that's not workable in many cases.

The range of the Tesla semi is supposed to be 500 miles. Others can be expected to be similar. That's enough that if you're even partially charging every time you stop to eat or sleep you'll never run out.
