This epic convoy of supercharged EVs prove that plug-in motors have the grunt to battle it out with the rest of the motoring world IF you think electric cars don't have the same excitement as regular high octane motors - then just take a look at this. Monster trucks, hypercars and lightning fast superbikes all feature in a thrilling new Mad Max-style video. The advert was created as part of E.ON's "Freedom is Electric" project that'll create a network of Tesla-beating super chargers. The footage shows the world's first fully electric monster truck battling it out in a desert race with a 200mph electric bike and a host of other powerful plug-ins. The EV convoy, which also includes a 1,250bhp hypercar, is shown carving along the desert track, leaving an empty petrol station in its wake. Undoubtedly the most impressive vehicle in the mix, the Bigfoot #20 monster truck is the only one of its kind, powered by 30 batteries delivering an incredible 360 volts. And generating 800lb-ft of torque despite its 11,000lbs of mass, it certainly has the grunt to compete in the monster truck world. Just as impressive are the capabilities of the featured Lightning Motorcycles LS 218 and Raesr hypercar. With a top speed of 218mph and range of 100 miles, it is no surprise the plug-in two-wheeler has already broken four land speed records. The Raesr Tachyon Speed on the other hand utilises six direct drive motors to generate 1,250bhp, giving it the power to travel from 0-120mph in less than seven seconds. Mad Max style convoy raced across the desert on pure battery power Alongside the advert, E.ON announced it will introduce fast-charging technology in up to 10,000 locations across Europe by 2020. More powerful than Tesla's 120kW outlets, the ultra-fast charging network offers 150 kW of power with an upgrade option to 350 kW. That means it can charge a 400 kilometre (248 miles) battery to full in less than 30 minutes. Anthony Ainsworth, global head of marketing at E.ON, said: "By bringing together these amazing vehicles and their equally passionate and inspiring owners we wanted to help people to reconsider what they think they know about electric vehicles, how they view energy and what they think about E.ON and its moves to be a force for change in energy.

"We are doing this by developing a growing network of charging points throughout Europe; whether at home, at work or on the go, from the city to the mountains. "We are investing in superfast charging technology including the first superfast charging station in Germany, being installed later this year, meaning EV becomes easy and drivers can get back on the road quicker than ever before."
