The well known luxury electric cars maker Tesla is going to reveal first of its kind- autonomous electric truck which will surely be a step forward in self-driving vehicles. The USP of this semi-truck is that it will work on electric power and will use a lesser amount of energy.
Tesla always used sustainable energy resources in the provision of electric cars which is quite admirable. However, this heavy loader will certainly set a new trend.
The company is making expansion plan to enhance its reach and to target potentially rich markets, from the past couple of months. The company is setting up its manufacturing plant in China.
Elon Musk, CEO Tesla believes that the truck will mark an adequate amount of power to pick up heavy weight. Tesla already claimed that it will reveal a working prototype of a vehicle which will be produced with great potential level within two years.
Once the car manufacturer unveils this truck it will surely be ideal for big automobiles, yet Tesla claims will be acceptable. It will get a max weight of 80,000 lbs, being a Class 8 truck.
For battery consumption it will need 500-600 kW power. And a leaked image came into sight on Reddit has also exposed the potential design of Tesla’s semi-truck.
Rumors are hitting the ground that the truck will also possess a few autonomous features. Autopilot system of Tesla is also expected to be featured in the truck. Tesla and Nevada are also making partnership for self-driving tech.
Depending upon its electric power, the upcoming Tesla truck is likely to cover 200-300 miles. If the plan goes successful in hitting this range, then surely they are handing over a first-class product for short and medium routes.
Elon Musk said that self-driving has long been criticized by other tech giants, while this advance will be a leading light if Tesla’s forthcoming semi-truck is as first-class as rumored.
