FYI the 500 mile range figure is fully loaded (cargo is at maximum load for U.S. roads). They claim "80% of routes are less than 250 miles", so they say that the truck can take most routes back and forth without needing to charge.
The million miles is on the drive train. I don't remember if they mentioned the battery warranty?
IIRC the cost per mile in a convoy that they quoted was $0.83/mile.
Same enhanced auto driving features of current Teslas. Automatic breaking, etc.
EDIT1: The dash is the wheel and two screens (left and right). Supposedly their software has all the integrations drivers need, so they don't need to slap other 3rd party devices into their vehicle (which they describe as a problem for existing trucks. I have no clue one way or the other).
It has a frunk.
- gaustin 9y agoMost semi-trucks are filled with proprietary technologies. Then more such is layered on by fleets, leasing companies, maintenance providers, etc. Little of it natively works together. The contractual limitations are nuts. From what I recall technology often isn't shared between automobile and truck manufacturing companies owned by the same parent because of these restrictions.
