This is a major hurdle for the technology. What they should be doing is collaborating on making their batteries easily replaceable to instead of recharging stations they (both semis and consumer vehicles) could just have the batteries swapped out for fully-charged ones. Ideally it should take no longer than filling up a tank of gas on your average consumer vehicle.

That's all well and good but thus far (as far as I know) there is no industry standard for battery placement nor size. Such a machine would need either an industry standard so it can work regardless of vehicle manufacturer or be highly adaptable.
