Tesla police cars: Even at its current level 2 driver assistance, FSD has to be hudge for a patrolman who can observe what's going on outside of driving the car. It's got to be a lot like a 2-man team with a driver and an observer without the 2nd salary to pay.

I lived in Europe for several years. Great people, good fruit trees and orchards, rapid season changes, incredible mountains, fine Autobahns (strade, routes, etc 🙂). But two main take-ways were (1) how old stuff (buildings, roads, politics, etc.) can be and (2) how "close" everything is together. Often Europeans have no conception how "big" the United States is; how far apart destinations can be, particularly from port or factory to consumer. Actually this makes everything much better for the (quiet and non-polluting) Tesla Semi. Both the standard and the extended ranges "fit" the human geography much better. Watching the rest of the video and all the images of trucks over-turning reminds me that the Semi is a software-defined vehicle. As such, it should be far safer to drive (for truckers and other vehicles on the road) and can at the very least warn before and document after accident situations.

@4literv6 День назад

The semi and ct are the most impactful by far in this regard. Diesel is the dirtiest most polluting fuel, has the most harmful particulate matter expelled from those noisy stinking exhausts. Uses def fluid which is 9# a gallon and requires urea mining and diesels run hotter vs gas! Example in America a reg full size pickup truck is driven over 15,000 miles a year and gets according to fuelly just 17mpg(real world experience as a truck owner for work purposes since the late 90s tells me that's to high of an est. So each pickup truck which are mostly overgrown cowboy cadillacs&pavement princesses. Consumes 800-1,000+gallons of gas at 7# per gallon in just fuel weight. Doesn't count the mining, chemicals and water used at multiple steps to extract it, transport it, refine it, transport it again etc. So that's 5,000-6,500# of fuel not being burned each year an ev truck is used. No wonder the fossil fuel industry is panicking over modern evs!😀 An average semi truck here in America gets 6.5-7.5mpg and travels 60,000+miles a year(I know guys who do double that number on their privately owned rigs. And each 7# gallon of diesel requires mining, water, chemicals and cobalt just to refine it+def fluid. All those processes use energy and fuel and won't be needed anymore with evs. So each semi sold will replace 45,000-70,000# of diesel fuel weight alone from being consumed each year. 👍🏻😎

@DougWedel-wj2jl 13 часов назад

The trailers have a lot to contribute to tractor trailers. Trailers currently come equipped with brakes. Switch to e motors to harness regen and you have an amazing hauler. But add computer controlled rear wheel steering and you have incredible maneuverability that will affect not just day to day driving but vehicle safety, maneuverability in tight places, assistance for black ice and jackknife situations and rollovers brought on by taking a turn too fast, slanted grades, high wind conditions. The opportunities far outweigh the urge to not. A lot of trucks are specialized, like car carrying tractor trailers, logging trucks, fuel tankers and liquid and fluid (grains are fluids and not liquids) trucks. Long straight trucks like garbage / recycling trucks, trucks delivering construction materials, cement trucks, all of these are specialized enough that they get customized for their task. Building these on a base unit that is an electric truck is not a big shift since so much is customized already.

USA TRUCK STOP pumps can up to 40 gallons a minute, 5 to 10 minute fill time, also 3.9 million class 8 trucks in USA so it’ll take more than fifty thousand a year for Europe and USA to make a dent in diesel sales. Almost all semis have exhaust engine compression braking , my Mack’s compression brake feels very similar to my model y’s regen braking.

Truckers or others behind wheels for over 8 hours a day. Non-Electric Trucks that produce carbon monoxide which is dangerous for you- you know this. Don't you care about your health? Your lungs and other diseases? Your engine if ran in closed space, will kill you- you know this. You say you care about your family, but best way to care for them is to care for yourself.

BigRigTravels always needs round about 15 minutes for a refill including payment from arriving at the station until he drives off. It's not 5 to 10 minutes. ---------- And for the e-trucks, the batteries are big enough to drive the allowed hours until the truckers must do a break for about 45 minutes for example in Europe. 45 minutes... That's a long time for charging... And it works for real routes all day long...

I am stoked about the semi and would love to wake up tomorrow with every diesel replaced by a Tesla semi... BUT... we have to acknowledge that installing all the megapacks and electrical substations will slow deployment for years. And Tesla can't sell trucks that have no place to charge. So I am really tempering my expectations for sales. I think they will actually need as wide a geographical net as possible so that as grids around the world work as fast as they each can, Tesla will be able to send them semis. I think N. America and Europe will both be needed to get even close to being able to add enough chargers cumulatively for 50,000 Tesla semis per year.

@fhurtig72 День назад

Some huge errors in this video. Scania produces about 100.000 trucks per year, not one million. Also one BIG difference between cars and trucks is that trucks are a commercial product, i.e you buy it to MAKE money not to spend money, which is the case with most cars. So the truck market is much more tailor-made than cars, which can be generalized. Still, I think the Tesla semi will be a big success. It is yet another category killer.

YWou point out companies can have magapacks to charge their Tesla Semis. One magapack with installation is about $2million dollars. If a company has that sort of money it has to ask itself should it buy 15 diesel semis instead. That is a lot of product being shifted rather than a big battery sat in your parking lot. How come we accept the Semi not being ramped until near 10 years after its announcement yet expect the Robo-taxi and cheapter model next year when we haven't even seen them yet?

An important note. The largest semi producer in the US sold 97k new Semis in America in 2023. Tesla plans to sell 50k. What would you do, as a company, if half your sales vanished overnight? What will truck stops do when they lose 50k semis a year for 3 years? How long until they start closing? How many millions of gallons of diesel will not be sold in the next 5 years?

@michaelkeppler6593 2 дня назад

Key questions: Will the Tesla Semi include FSD? Could we see Robo Semis soon?

@bobwallace9753 2 дня назад

I think a safe guess is within five years. First, Tesla has to complete FSD which may take another year. Then it is likely to take a year to collect sufficient data to allow driverless car operation. At first, driverless cars will not be permitted in all locations, it will take a bit of time for the entire country to accept them. And then, I suspect, we'll see driverless trucks. We might see test routes, such as the Fremont factory and Reno factory, permitted around the time robotaxis are operating in some markets.

Can a human driver monitor both leading edges of the truck at the same time? Can a human driver watch both sides of the trailer at the same time while backing up? "The Tesla Semi has many cameras in various locations, including: Windshield: Three cameras are mounted on the top of the windshield, including a wide-angle lens, a telephoto lens, and a camera with a typical lens. The telephoto lens can see up to 250 meters ahead, while the main lens covers 150 meters. Front bumper: A camera is mounted in the front bumper. Side mirrors: An updated prototype of the Tesla Semi had three cameras in its side mirrors, one at the bottom, one at the far end, and one encased like the B-pillar cameras. Headlight assembly: Cameras are mounted discreetly within the headlight assembly. " And, if necessary, there's no reason why a camera couldn't be attached to the rear of the trailer to give constant 360 degree vision. Do remember, the computer is able to constantly attend to the input from all of those cameras. It doesn't need to shift attention to one side of the road and then back to the other. It won't blink, sneeze, or doze off.

And Tesla is going to install truck chargers where their customers want them. I do expect to see Tesla set up one coast to coast highway route like they did for the Model S fairly early. 3,000 miles. One station every 200 miles would mean only 15 stations. And those stations could serve runs on each side of the highway.
