The Tesla Semi and Roadster and Their Powers
Tesla Inc. might well be having a significant effect on all of our lives with its newest addition of the Electric Semi-Truck to the Tesla line. This truck was espoused to reach zero to sixty miles per hour in five seconds with an empty trailer, according to Musk. He went on to describe this new freight hauler as being able to go 500 miles with a full load before needing necessary battery recharging. This streamlined semi seats the driver in the center of the cab and surrounds him or her with touch controls, making the driving experience smooth.
Wal-Mart has pre-ordered 15 of these new, low emission trucks to be used in its US and Canadian locations. Canadian grocery giant, Loblaw, has also pre-ordered 25 of the vehicles despite the fact that the end price has yet to be announced. The retailers explain that their use would lessen the cost eventually passed along to consumers.
