    Even if it were, it weighs 3,4 tons empty. Most EU Citizens have drivers licenses that allow cars up to 3,5 tons max. weight, including driver, passengers and cargo.

    It’s impossible to use in the EU without an actual truck driving license.

      “Truck driving licence” is rather simplifying it.

      There are carious degrees of licences between B (up to 3500kg) and a “proper” truck driving licence, CE, which allows you to operate actual full combination trucks.

      C1, one above B is basically a van licence, and that’s up to 7500 kg and up to eight people. This is a fairly common licence.

      I myself have a C licence, which was also very common to drive when I went through driving school, and it has no weight limit. I can drive a truck of any size, but I don’t have an “actual truck licence” in the sense that I don’t have the CE licence nor do I have the professional licence for a C sized truck. (And I can’t drive buses, those call for a D licence instead)

      So basically something that exceeds 3500kg but isn’t a professional vehicle is the only thing my C would be useful for. B class licence is certainly more common, but C and especially C1 are still plenty common.

      That’ll change when EVs begin to dominate the market, they all weigh considerably more than their ICE counterparts.
