The total weight of the vehicle with the semi-trailer exceeds 36 tons.
This week, Tesla will begin handing over to its first corporate customers Semi electric long-haul trucks, which began production in October at a purpose-built line in Nevada. The truck version with an estimated range of 800 km will hit the market first, followed by a more affordable vehicle with a range of about 480 km. The company has repeatedly emphasized that these figures are given for measurements with a total mass of a road train, which reaches approximately 36 tons. According to Electrek, this weekend, Elon Musk confirmed the ability of the production version of the Tesla Semi to cover 800 km without recharging with a full load.

It is clear that the Tesla Semi payload may be somewhat inferior to its diesel counterpart, because on board it always carries with it a weighty traction battery, which so far does not even consist of the most efficient cells of the 4680 type, but relies on the more numerous and therefore heavy 2170. Behind the scenes remains and the price of the truck, since Tesla is still selling them under contracts with major carriers in the United States. During the presentation in 2017, Elon Musk never tired of emphasizing that an electric battery truck would be much more profitable to operate than a diesel one. The ability to cover 800 km without recharging allows you to fully operate such a car, provided that there are suitable charging stations on the route, since drivers in the United States are required to make a rest stop every eight hours, during which the traction battery can be recharged.
