Tesla is getting the truck Semi ready for Europe

It is very possible that Cybertruck will not come to Europe. But according to the plan, the truck Semi is at least going here.

Right now you can see everything from Model S to Model X on the Danish roads. However, Tesla's Semi truck is nowhere to be seen.

But it comes here. In any case, it is Tesla's plan to launch the large, electric truck in Europe. It is not the production that is an obstacle either.

It has been running for a year and a half. But things are slow even in Tesla's world. The first copies are being tested in the USA, i.a. together with the soda giant Pepsi Co.

And from here it sounds like the first copies already have just under 250,000 miles, equivalent to 402,000 kilometers. According to Tesla, the truck is 'mostly' capable of idling.

The truck has only been stopped to load, load and/or change drivers. But in the current schedule, which takes into account driver changes, unloading and loading as well as charging, Tesla believes that the Semi can cover 1,700 kilometers in the same day.

In connection with a transport fair in Hannover, Germany, Dan Priestley, who heads the Semi project at Tesla, and Dejan Antunović from Pepsi's electrification program, participated in a panel discussion.

This is where the Tesla boss confirmed that the truck is coming to Europe soon. And if you ask Pepsi, at least one driver has said that he will never return to a truck with an internal combustion engine.

Tesla so far has a test fleet of trucks of just under 100 units. However, what Tesla means by 'soon' did not come out during the panel debate.

The news about Tesla's Semi launch in Europe comes just a few days after the US authorities released a report stating that 189,000 liters of water were used to extinguish one of Tesla's burning trucks. Read more about it here .
