Tesla has a history of exaggerating the ranges of their vehicles to an extent that competitors do not.
- jerlam 5mo agoTrucking seems like an industry where exaggerating the range will lead to contracts being cancelled and companies being sued. I'm assuming that a Tesla Semi can't just stop off at the nearest Supercharger.
- mlmonkey 5mo agoI've read that Semis need to use a "MegaCharger" ...
- danaw 5mo agobig branding fail not using "gigacharger"
- iknowstuff 5mo agoMegacharger because they're a Megawatt of power. 1.2MW
- DonHopkins 5mo agoTry ChargeMaxing, and hitting it with a hammer.
- danaw 5mo agoan acceptable alternative :chefs_kiss:
- whateveracct 5mo agothey haven't gotten on the road yet, so it remains to be seen
- SlightlyLeftPad 5mo agoBeing a two-time Tesla owner for 8 years, at this point, there is no claim Tesla can possibly make that I would ever believe. Their (and Elon’s) track record on countless claims have been wildly misleading at best or completely false at worst.
