The car will still run on electricity. The diesel engine will be mounted in the back to top up the battery, and for rolling coal.

Didn’t they try something similar in a 1980’s three part documentary about a time machine?

That was so clearly faked, there was a huge train pushing it the whole time!

So a redneck Chevy Volt. Way I recall their design it's called a hybrid but only drives on electric with a small ICE to charge from.
