Tesla Semi truck unveil & test ride set for Oct 26th !

But based on Musk’s announcement, Tesla is also expected to finally deliver Tesla Semi to customers who have placed orders up to five years ago.

Tesla has been taking reservations with deposits for up to $20,000 per truck.

The company is believed to have thousands of reservations for the electric truck with several large companies having big orders, including Walmart and PepsiCo.

While the automaker has production capacity deployed in Nevada, it is fairly low volume. Tesla is expected to bring the vehicle to volume production at Gigafactory Texas next year.

The company has never announced a planned production capacity, but it is expected to be in the tens of thousands of trucks per year.
