Chest thumping EV fans, be warned, this is the only remaining EV thread, lol.. 8.1 Van wrote:
I thought this would show inside the production area. Not some joy ride in the lot.
Tesla SEMI Entering Production! (In Limited Volume)- Geeze, talk about a fan boy, that guy in the video could be on the edge of OCD when it comes to Tesla. :) And it's still all speculation, even by the fan boys. And they admit that any kind of real production will be in 2023. Perhaps limited, perhaps but nobody knows, production next year. I mean 5 trucks or less per week is definitely limited. Still just vaporware. Heck that truck in the video could have been one of the originals.
And the saga continues. :)
That guy was pretty funny, he ran on for about 5 minutes about the windshield wiper on the cybertruck. Really important cutting edge stuff. :) - one tractor cab running up and down an access road is not the definition of limited production. Are any of the vehicles titled as production vehicles, or are they still using mfg plates for their vehicles?
A source has informed me that the Tesla Semi is now in limited production. Key word here is LIMITED. Volume production won't start until 2023. This has been independently corroborated by drone footage taken today (Dec 10, 2021) of the Giga Nevada Semi production building, and sent to me. I'm told that unlike previous Tesla Semi builds spotted, this one did not have any department of transportation stickers or manufacturer plates.
On November 8th, 2021, PepsiCo CEO Ramon Laguarta told CNBC that his company expects to receive some deliveries of the Tesla Semi in Q4 of this year (2021).
If Pepsi does receive some Tesla Semi’s this year, I view it as a customer test program. Pepsi will use them in the real world & relay info back to Tesla on how it goes & what they can improve. At least that’s my guess. Again, volume production/deliveries won’t start until 2023.

There is standardized charging for EVs. Quite widespread also. There is an available adapter for Tesla to use the standard stuff.
It would only make sense. It would make a lot more sense for any EV to be able to charge quickly at any charger. For this whole EV thing to really work, the industry needs to figure that part out.
