TESLA INTRODUCES AN ELECTRIC TRUCK AND A NEW ROADSTER
Tesla introduced an electric truck called Tesla Semi and a new Roadster.
Tesla Semi has a range of 500 miles on a single charge and it will achieve 0-60mph in 20 seconds when pulling 36,287kgs (80,000lbs), the maximum allowed on US roads.
“The surround cameras aid object detection and minimize blind spots, automatically alerting the driver to safety hazards and obstacles.
“With Enhanced Autopilot, the Tesla Semi features Automatic Emergency Braking, Automatic Lane Keeping, and Lane Departure Warning.”
As for cost, the company said that per mile the Tesla Semi would work out cheaper than a diesel equivalent when fuel and other maintenance is taken into consideration – but did not share the cost of an individual truck.
Tesla says the vehicle – known in the US as a semi-trailer truck – will go into production in 2019.
Chief executive Elon Musk also revealed the new Roadster, which he said would be “the fastest production car ever” made. The roadster will have a range of close to 1,000km (620 miles) on a single charge and will do 0-100mph in 4.2 seconds and it will be available in 2020.
