Your estimations are probably very far off.
The Roadster was announced with a 200kwh battery, which is twice the capacity of the best Model S. Yet the Roadster is much smaller, and the 0-60/quarter mile times indicate that it is much lighter.
So, we can conclude that Tesla is accounting for some real technology optimization in their batteries over the next 4 years, which I'm sure the Semi will see as well.
- SigmundA 9y agoThe Roadster is probably all battery, no reason to think its not 2000 lbs of battery and 1000-1500 lbs of car. Is there anything to indicate lithium batteries will somehow get 60-70% lighter in 2 years?
