Tesla Semi, the production of the electric truck may be near

It seems that the time for the entry into production of the Tesla Semi , the long-awaited electric truck with which Elon Musk aims to revolutionize the world of transport. According to a report by Electrek, the infrastructure for the production of this vehicle, built in a new warehouse inside the Gigafactory in Nevada, would be almost ready to be put into operation. In particular, the production line for the drive axle would be completed, while the one dedicated to general assembly would be subjected to the latest checks. If the report is confirmed, it would be good news for the many customers waiting for this vehicle.

A LONG WAIT

The electric truck was presented way back in 2017 with the promise that deliveries would start in 2019. But when it comes to Tesla, the dates must always be taken with due caution. The debut of the electric truck was then postponed to 2020 and then again to 2021. The latest information spoke of a small production by the end of the year and then reaching full capacity in the course of 2022.

The report, therefore, would confirm the forecasts that the very first units & agrave; of Tesla Semi can really be put on the road by the end of 2021. Among the reasons that had made the times expand, there were also the supply problems of the new 4680 batteries developed by the American car manufacturer. 5 electric trucks per week should be produced from the Nevada Gigafactory production line. The Tesla Semi should also be built in the new Texas factory.

According to the report, the first units & agrave; of the electric truck should be used directly by Tesla for its activities; but if the production really starts, it is; likely that by the end of the year some customers will be able to receive what has been ordered for some time. The order list is; particularly long. Several large companies have ordered Tesla's innovative trucks. For example, Walmart has booked as many as 130 of these vehicles. PepsiCo has also placed a major order for the electric trucks and expects the first 15 units arrive within the year.

But with the Tesla Semi going into production, things get better. its final technical specifications will be interesting to discover. In recent years, the car manufacturer has been able to refine its project. There is talk of 4680 cells, a 500 kWh battery pack and an autonomy that could have grown up to 1,000 km. Officially, however, the Tesla Semi (class 8 truck) is still offered in two versions: one with 300 miles (482 km) and the second with 500 miles (804 km) of autonomy.

than to wait for official information from the car manufacturer. If the production is really about to start, surely Elon Musk will not miss it; to communicate it.
