- Immense number of improvements in next year's Semi stemming from pilot fleet learnings and amazing innovations from the Tesla teams working on it.Replying to @Tesla @robotaxi and 3 othersNew @tesla_semi design – More efficient – Increased payload – Designed for autonomy Deliveries start next year
- *blows dust off Twitter account* Hi everyone!
- Proud to continue investment at Gigafactory Nevada.Nearing completion of our first LFP cell manufacturing factory in North America
00:00 - V4 cabinet rocks and has large benefits for Semi -Commonality with car uses increases volumes, decreases cost, improves service -Higher power density reduces construction costs and footprint on yards -More efficient energy conversion reduces operating cost -Deployable worldwideIt might be odd to get so excited about a white box, but the V4 cabinet is a charging masterpiece: AC in, 16 trays of power electronics, DC out. This is the tech that will make 1.2MW charging for Semi, and 0.5 MW charging for cars, ubiquitous around the world.
- Replying to @ElectrekCo and @fredlambertNo change to schedule. And multiple incorrect conclusions. The future is bright, electric, and cost effective!
- Semi can drop into freight lanes with no compromises at lower operating costs. With @UberFreight matching shippers + carriers and removing revenue and utilization uncertainty, EV adoption will accelerate as operators realize the cost and maintenance benefits Semi offers.At #Deliver2025, Uber Freight launched the Dedicated EV Fleet Accelerator Program with @tesla_semi. ✔ Subsidized entry point for the Tesla Semi ✔ Secured dedicated freight demand ✔ Immediate ROI potential Help drive the future of transportation: uberfreight.com/blog/introduci…
- High volume production of Tesla Semi will meaningfully accelerate the world’s transition to sustainable energy. On a per vehicle basis, Semi offsets more carbon & particulate emissions than our other vehicles by a large margin. All while being lower total cost than diesel trucks.
- Working with our suppliers and logistics partners to electrify Tesla’s supply chain. With lower cost and higher reliability, it just makes sense. thyssenkrupp pushed the truck hard over this demo and now plans to integrate Semi into their fleet.
- TCI is excited to announce a new partnership with Nevoya, a leading zero-emissions electric trucking carrier & technology-driven logistics platform. ⚡ TCI will lease five @Tesla Semis to support their fleet expansion & help meet growing demand for zero-emissions transportation.
- Lower emissions means big fuel savings. Green = greenTesla Semi fleet has saved more than 1 million gallons of diesel
00:00 - Yesterday, Semi Factory Nevada topped off the main area of the building with the last major piece of structural steel! Fantastic design and execution by this construction team and our contractor partners with focus on safety and efficiency. This factory is going to rock!
