Tesla delivered its first all-electric Semi trucks after a decade of delays since the 2017 reveal, with a new factory in Reno capable of producing 50,000 trucks annually. The long-range version travels 500+ miles per charge and costs nearly $300,000 before incentives, addressing heavy-truck emissions which account for 16% of total trucking emissions despite being just 1% of vehicles on the road.
