Not all data is out yet but the idea that electric trucks can drive useful range without anything but chips is complete nonsense. The gigantic of track transports are blow 300 miles and a Tesla Semi can handle that under full load and difficult circumstances.
- jojobas 3y agoYour article specifically mentions it's unknown what load they carried and the data suggests not a lot. News from 2022 say they hauled chips for 400 odd miles, and limited soft drink sorties to about 100 miles. https://www.cnbc.com/2022/12/16/pepsico-is-using-36-tesla-semis-in-its-fleet-and-is-upgrading-facilities-for-more-in-2023-exec-says.html https://www.cnbc.com/2022/12/16/pepsico-is-using-36-tesla-se... https://futurism.com/the-byte/tesla-semi-range-potato-chips https://futurism.com/the-byte/tesla-semi-range-potato-chips
