Tesla Semi Truck Specs and Features<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The introduction of the semi truck is Tesla\u2019s entrance into the truck market. Announced in 2017 by the chief executive Elon Musk, the semi truck is now a reality. Let\u2019s dive into the details and learn all about the Tesla Semi truck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

TESLA SEMI EXTERIOR<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

As the possible future face of trucks, the Tesla Semi has a design, unlike any vehicle in the segment. The front sloping area of the truck consists of an enormous wraparound glass. The panel of the glass area extends to the truck\u2019s doors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Diesel trucks have big grilles for air intake to the massive engine. However, the semi truck continues Tesla’s legacy of electric cars<\/a> and the difference reflects in the all-electric truck\u2019s design as well. The Tesla Semi truck has an air intake passage at the vehicle\u2019s chin while the nose is blanked off. The passage provides a way for air to cool the battery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moreover, the truck contains an axle at the front and two at the rear. The tow hitch and trailer bed are also housed at the rear. All in all, the truck\u2019s design comes with aerodynamic benefits for smooth rides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Tesla Semi comes with a tri-motor powertrain and a 1000-volt electric system. The 1000-volt electric system makes perfect sense for the large vehicle as there\u2019s a higher charging power requirement. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The three independent motors in the Tesla Semi electric truck provide instant torque<\/a>. Moreover, the truck can touch from 0 to 97 kilometres per hour in an impressive 20 seconds. Fully loaded, the truck can maintain steady highway speeds even on steep surfaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

TESLA SEMI RANGE<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Trucks are usually used for commercial use which may include long tours. The EV range has been a topic of discussion for some time. Issues such as electric car range anxiety<\/a> have been associated with EVs. However, with the semi truck, Tesla has ensured a respectable range.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Among the two versions of the Tesla Semi, one provides about 483 kilometres of range. The other version gives an impressive range of about 805 kilometres. The ranges offered are possible at the full loading capacity of 37,195 kilograms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The semi truck does not fail to impress with the interior as well. The driver\u2019s seat is conveniently located at the centre. This provides better road visibility from the windshield<\/a>. Additionally, there are two foldable seats behind the driver\u2019s seat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two large touch screens are located at the extreme corners of the dashboard. The two advanced screens can track the location and initiate communication. Moreover, the vehicle is equipped with a predictive maintenance feature that informs the driver when a service is needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

TESLA SEMI CHARGING<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Tesla Semi has an enormous battery pack. A battery of this size requires extra fast speed and more charging time. Tesla has offered a solution to this with the announcement of Tesla mega chargers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These mega chargers would be able to charge the Tesla Semi promptly- providing a 70 percent range after charging for 30 minutes. With the availability of several Tesla charging stations in the UAE<\/a>, the mega charging stations may also become a part of the network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

TESLA SEMI SAFETY FEATURES<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

For a vehicle of this size, in particular, safety is of paramount importance. The Tesla Semi is contains several modern car safety features<\/a> to ensure driver and passenger safety. Some of the safety features of the Tesla Semi include the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
