For any vehicle that goes in the wilderness or even just off road, an ICE drivetrain works better, because (apart from being lighter), if something goes wrong, you might run out of fuel (example, you get lost and you eventually run out of fuel). Then it is much easier to source some fuel, than it would be to recharge or tow a vehicle with an EV drivetrain. And as a preventative measure, it is also easier to increase your vehicle's range by carrying more fuel on board with you.

Sure, if there was a will, a lot of vehicles and journeys could be accomplished with a EV drivetrain, however, not without compromises.

So really, I do not think there is demand at this point.

See my response to a sibling comment. I don’t believe lack of demand is the explanation.
