Top Gear just got an inside look at the production Tesla Semi.....and there are a LOT of new details Tesla has refined almost every part of the truck for efficiency, durability and mass production: • Semi is powder-coated instead of painted.....there is no traditional paint shop • Production version is about 3% more efficient than the prototype • More aerodynamic than a Bugatti Chiron without a trailer • Standard Range uses a 548 kWh battery • Despite its enormous size, Semi uses only ~7× the energy of a Model Y • New front-bumper vent improves airflow around the wheels • Three-piece front bumper makes repairs easier and cheaper • Squarer battery-pack design helps retain heat better in cold weather • Cloth seat is both heated AND ventilated • A 6'6" person can stand completely upright inside the cab • And yes.....the sun visor is absolutely gigantic The factory itself is another story 1.7 MILLION sq. ft. Designed for ~1,000 Semis per week Up to ~50,000 trucks per year at full production Tesla redesigned the truck and the factory together to make electric heavy-duty trucking work at massive scale
