After delays: Tesla wants to sell electric trucks in Europe too
Tesla's electric semi-truck was already presented in 2017 - and has only been built in somewhat larger numbers since this year. Now the automaker, led by Elon Musk, is planning the start in Europe.
Tesla plans to introduce its electric semi-truck, the Tesla Semi, to the European market. The company will reveal details about the launch and technical specifications at the IAA Nutzfahrzeuge in Hannover, which takes place from September 15 to 20. The Tesla Semi was first unveiled in 2017 and initially expected to enter production in 2019, but its launch was delayed several times.
Production began in April in Nevada, USA, and the first trucks were delivered to customers such as PepsiCo. The Tesla Semi has an estimated range of over 800 kilometers on a single battery charge.
