Tesla unveils Semi electric truck with long-haul focus and megawatt charging

Tesla introduced its Semi heavy-duty electric truck at its Gigafactory in Nevada, outlining a product aimed at long-distance freight and supported by a megawatt-class charging network. The company said the truck will come in two versions: a long-range model capable of 500 miles on a single charge while fully loaded at 82,000 pounds, and a standard version rated for 325 miles. Tesla said the Semi uses 4680 battery cells, with the design intended to improve energy density and lower total cost of ownership. The company also highlighted updates to the cab based on fleet feedback, including adjustable windows, sound insulation, and personalized seat and interface settings through mobile devices. Elon Musk, speaking in a prerecorded video, described the driving experience as similar to a Tesla sports car in truck form and said autonomous driving features are expected to be integrated in the future to improve safety and comfort on long routes. Tesla said the Semi’s trip planner uses real-time weather, traffic, and payload data to adjust route and range estimates, and can automatically connect drivers to Mega-Charger stations when charging is needed. The charging system supports up to 1.2 megawatts, while fleet operators can also use 125-kilowatt chargers for overnight charging. Before mass production, Tesla said a pilot program with nearly 200 vehicles logged 17.5 million miles across snow, rain, heat, and steep grades.
