There’s a big rig coming
Not content with planning the colonisation of Mars and building cars that can drive themselves , Elon Musk is also getting into the truck-building business, confirming via Twitter that his Tesla company is readying an electric semi truck too.
The truck is going to be unveiled in September, Musk says… and that’s just about everything we know about it so far. The Tesla CEO did add that the company’s engineers have done an “amazing job” on it and that the vehicle is “seriously next level”.
Make of that what you will. After his initial tweet, Musk went on to say that a pickup truck would also be appearing within the next 18-24 months, so it would seem Tesla’s portfolio of electric vehicles is due a serious expansion in the next couple of years.
