I don't know anything about energy storage density but I do have some pics of something similar. I like the electric one better

Foggy1111 and Jdonly need to be informed about the laws of physics and battery theory.

Yes, please do, because I see no relationship between the laws of physics and battery theory and whether or not something is cool looking or not. What the heck does one have to do with the other? I'll be waiting with arms crossed and toe tapping.

Canadian Armed forces is currently wasting $$$ on an electric stealth snowmobile . Didn't you know about it ?

Yes, I remember seeing that in the papers. Believe the contract was like, 1.5 or 2 million dollars. Was to be a stealthy sled to sneak up on Russian arctic installations.
Wonder what mileage batteries will do at -40 or -50 degrees, and how do yo recharge then at the arctic circle.(silently)

Best for the armed forces to use muted dog sleds and save taxpayers all them $$$$$
