Tesla Semi Truck production

#1

Looks like they're finally managing to start serial production of the Tesla Semi Truck - first commercial deliveries by December.

This is a good thing IMHO - although it was announced quite a few years ago, other HGV manufacturers have released BEV HGV tractors in the meantime, so it does seem to have kick-started that market segment. It also presumably signals that they've managed to scale production of the 4680 battery cell format enough to supply the Texas Y and the Semi with enough battery packs. Which is also a good thing.
