Then you haven't clicked the link yet. Because in the tank is a (extra) battery pack. So the tank can actually hold the "fuel" :wink:
Look at 5 minute 55:

Maybe, but it's also common outside of electrics. Plenty of gas burning motorcycles have the gas tank under the seat, and use the "gas tank" for storage.
