Some regional routes could work. So long as they are short and involve charging while loading/unloading.
But yeah, long haul was a stupid plan that would have never worked. Not without some massive batteries to kick the range way up to something like 800 miles and infrastructure to allow these trucks to charge overnight.
I just don't think the power density is there currently for trucks.
