Tesla has started mass production of its Semi truck at Gigafactory Nevada. The production marks a significant milestone for the company, which first unveiled the Semi in 2017 with a planned production start in 2019. The Semi has undergone significant updates since the initial pilot production, including a new chassis, changed headlights, and improved aerodynamics, resulting in a weight reduction of around 1,000 pounds. Two versions are available: Standard Range and Long Range. The Standard Range has a 325-mile range, 1,072 horsepower, and a maximum combined weight rating of 82,000 pounds. The Long Range has a 500-mile range but is 3,000 pounds heavier, limiting its cargo capacity. Tesla's factory is designed to produce up to 50,000 units per year, making it potentially the second-highest-selling Class 8 truck brand in the US.
