The thing with Tesla's semi truck is the extreme range. Easy to swap in some batteries and make a electric truck. Electric motors and batteries have plenty of power (and gearing can turn that into whatever torque you'd like). It's range, without undue payload reduction.
That was always the challenging part. Still is. Freightliner is nowhere near the 450-500 mile range you'd need. They're half that.
