The Senior Manager of Tesla, Dan Priestley has recently provided insights and details about the Tesla Semi production progress while appearing on Jay Leno’s Garage. In an interview, Priestley also hinted that Tesla would update the all-electric Class 8 truck’s design before volume production.
Dan Priestley Says,
- We’ve made a few dozens of it; we’re up in the maybe 60-70 range, but we’re cranking out just our pilot volume.” “We’re collecting data, we’re getting a lot of really great driver feedback, and then we’re going to take that time to do a bunch of improvements and bring that into a high volume and really try to be a major player in the market.”
Moving on, Priestley noted that the Tesla Semi production can recover 70% of its charge in 30 minutes. He also shared that Tesla has the semi-deliver battery packs from its Gigafactory in Nevada to California, adding that the all-electric Class 8 truck has matched the capabilities of diesel trucks.
