Tesla Semi’s interior is unmatched in spaciousness for a day cab. The design team created a great space that’s comfortable to be in and has tons of utility - full area to stand up in, several storage areas, and easy ingress + egress.

Every day, the Tesla Semi demonstrates that battery electric trucks can directly replace diesel trucks. With our own fleet of Semis, Tesla has shipped >20,000 battery packs out of Gigafactory Nevada to support Fremont vehicle builds. These trucks run the same route, carrying the…

EPA is finalizing stronger standards to reduce greenhouse gas #emissions from heavy-duty vehicles such as delivery trucks and tractor-trailers. These new standards will benefit public health and save truck owners and operators money.

Not only a huge lift by the charging field teams, but also by the engineers and technicians that have been doing an immense amount of integration work to ensure high success rates of non-Teslas plugging into Superchargers.

@colinwalker79 @Stellantis @Reuters He’s completely disregarding the mass that flows through an ICE vehicle during its life. That mass (aka fuel), which requires extraction and transport, is orders of magnitude more than the incremental mass of a battery in an EV. Thus the two aren’t comparable in environmental…

2023 has begun! It’ll throw some punches (what year hasn’t?) but excited for this trip around the sun. Each revolution seems faster, which is weird since it doesn’t work that way You’d think we’d compensate for that perception by now. Going to make the most of it. Who’s with me?

@MartinViecha It’s great. @larsmoravy and the Vehicle Engineering team really delivered. Much improved NVH (including a satisfying door close!), excellent ride without losing the Tesla handling, and big notch up in quality throughout.

@MartinViecha @alojoh Indeed. Also, while Tesla’s late vertical trajectory is eye catching in this chart, the shallowness of the downward slope early on compared to others must be acknowledged. Tesla spends efficiently and wisely.

@BergsenBri66275 @CIANO_tico @alex_avoigt @sellthedip6 This is correct. Under the previous combination length limits in Europe, cab overs allowed for carrying max volume of cargo. New rules allow for longer, more aerodynamic cabs without sacrificing cargo volume.

@bm1nus We're starting with the combination/tractor space as those vehicles consume the most fuel - driving consumes a lot more than idling. There's no shortage of interest in electrifying other segments eventually
