According to the report, more than three years after its release, the much-anticipated Tesla electric truck Semi has finally released the news of the upcoming mass production. Tesla is building a new electric truck production line in a factory near the Nevada Super Factory and plans to produce 5 electric trucks a week.
Along wi this, as the news of mass production, the Tesla electric truck Semi that has a cost advantage after being put into operation is also receiving new orders. California logistics company MHX has ordered 10 Class 8 Semi electric trucks from Tesla.
Class 8 is a heavy-duty truck in the United States. The batch of electric trucks that MHX has ordered from Tesla will operate on the south coast of the Bay Area, as part of their efforts to electrify the truck fleet in the South Bay Area Air Quality Management Zone.
Additionally, to pre-ordering 10 Semi electric trucks, MHX will also purchase two Megachargers to charge the electric trucks. The Semi is an electric truck launched by Tesla in November 2017. There are two versions, an entry-level version, and a high-end version.
The former has a range of 300 miles (approximately 482 kilometers), and the latter has a range after a full charge. 500 miles, the entry-level version is priced at 150,000 US dollars, and the high-end version is 180,000 US dollars.
Like many previously released electric vehicles, Tesla’s semi-electric truck also has a founder series of 1,000 vehicles, priced at $200,000, and full payment is required when booking.
Although the selling cost of Tesla Semi is not low, it has a huge cost advantage after it is put into operation, and it has won orders from many companies. Many companies like United Parcel Service and Pepsi have already booked it.
