With the onset of electric cars, when do you think electric tractors will be in barns and shops everywhere?
GE made the ElecTrak years ago. Just saw one on CL a few months ago.

Large mining equipment has been diesel electric for decades. All of the large mining haul trucks have diesel electric power (diesel generator, electric drive motors at each wheel) with the exception of Caterpillar which still uses a planetary gearbox and a torque converter.
