Actually I was thinking that you could have it operate in pulses, say
every X seconds (x ~= 5 or more for trucks), since you can't start up
a vehicle immediately.  If the duty cycle is low enough, you could do
it with much less average power.  Ex: Marx Generator:

Oh, and if anyone's interested in the "do crazy stuff with high
voltage", see this site.  The videos are amazing.
