well that was unexpected

I'm curious if the desgin team knew about it in advance

Are you asking if Swiss guys knew about mountains? )

[–] mEEGal@lemmy.world 8 points 3 days ago (1 children)

hahaha guess it boils down to that 😂

but I was specifically wondering if they built the vehicle with a charger and ended up never using it, to their own surprise. or if they knew they'd (almost) never have to charge it

Must have a cable somewhere as a backup otherwise you’d need a full battery replacement should it ever be discharged.

Gonna go ahead and guess that when designing a 110 ton mega dump truck things are probably pretty front loaded on the planning side of things.
