I don't think you'll ever be convinced either way, or with any arguments / facts.
Until the final truck is on US soil and has been tested by KION / Linde engineers then it makes no sense to start creating noises in the market. It'll be relatively low volume in year 1 in a new segment, the best approach is to be cautious, don't overpromise and focus on quality. This I believe is what they'll do and when it proves it's worth it'll be a much easier sell over the competition.
I for one look forward to driving the truck and benchmarking before I sell it to my customers. As it stands now and considering what I know I am quietly optimistic.
