how long till hybrid lorries

[familyguy1]

Cycling to work this morning it struck me (in the lungs)

An electric motor and batteries could do the stop start portion of the driving, which is when lorries seem to kick out the most fumes and I imagine engine braking could regen ALOT to refill the batteries.

I'm sure its on the way, but it just seems a long way off for the smaller lorries we see around town causing a lot of pollution.

interesting, thanks, I guess its got to trickle down and the hybrids are more expensive and complex.
