I think for long haul 18 wheelers, CNG/LNG is the only viable alternative right now. An all-electric solution would be trains and short haul trucks. However, the technology isn't so far off that an all-electric 18 wheeler isn't possible.
Keep in mind you can't use the fuel density as a straight comparison. Even though a jet turbine is efficient, it's still not as efficient as an electric motor since a lot of the energy in the fuel is lost as heat (wiki says cycle efficiency for a jet turbine is still only around 30%). That would bring the jet equivalent to ~4000Wh/kg.
I remember Elon saying around 500Wh/kg is when it begins making sense to consider an electric jet. And I believe his goal was something like the Concorde, which carried 95 tons of fuel. And the rest I think would have to be achieved by efficiency optimizations you can do from not having an air breathing engine and not having energy storage that can slosh around and can change weight as it depletes (this was an issue in the Concorde).
However, I think lithum air (which can practically achieve 2000Wh/kg, theoretical is 11kWh/kg, 5000Wh/kg including oxygen) is probably the chemistry that can make electric commercial aircraft possible, although you lose the advantages mentioned above (since lithium air batteries need air and get heavier as they deplete). Lithium sulfur theoretical is about 3000Wh/kg, achieved is 500Wh/kg, I don't have a source, but I'm guessing practical achieveable would be ~1000Wh/kg (20-30% of theoretical is typically achievable).
