Tesla Semi
A heavy-duty battery-electric truck developed by Tesla, first unveiled in 2017. Designed for long-haul freight transport, it targets a range of 500 miles (approximately 800 kilometers) on a single charge and is aimed at commercial logistics fleet operators.
Timeline (last 90 days)
Tesla's electric heavy-duty truck, the Semi, has a range of 500 miles (approximately 800 kilometers).
Tesla plans to achieve a target of producing 50,000 Semi electric trucks annually.
The Tesla Semi is approaching large-scale mass production after more than a decade of research and development and multiple delays.
Tesla Semi adopts a combination solution of 4680 cylindrical batteries and a large battery pack.
Tesla Semi's total battery capacity is estimated to exceed 800–900 kWh, more than 10 times that of an ordinary electric passenger vehicle.
Tesla Semi is equipped with a regenerative braking system that can recover kinetic energy during downhill driving and deceleration.
The 500-mile range figure is typically measured under no-load or light-load conditions, and the actual range at full load of 80,000 lbs (approximately 36 tonnes) has yet to be verified.
