Synopsis

Tesla’s much-awaited Semi Truck would ship soon, and the Cybertruck would launch in 2023. Tesla said that the SemiTruck would launch in 2019, but it didn't. The world saw the first glimpse of the Semi-Truck a little more than four and a half years back.

Agencies
American multinational automotive company Tesla is all set to launch much-awaited semi-truck by end of 2022 and Cybertruck in 2023. Tesla CEO and world's richest person Elon Musk took to Twitter and announced that the world would not have to wait for much more for the Semi-Truck and the Cybertruck. As he promised, there will be a range of 500 miles on the Semi-Truck. However, there is no news about how big the battery will be to reach those figures.

While unveiling, Tesla said that the Semi-Truck would go from 0 to 60 in flat five seconds. It would be possible even without a payload and rival a hatchback. While carrying 36.3 tonnes, the sprint at the headline would be like 20 seconds. Tesla also said that the Semi-Truck could add 400 miles in only 30 minutes of charging. Because of the Megachargers, the company's Supercharger will look like triple A batteries.

Apart from all this, Elon Musk has also confirmed that the much-awaited Tesla Cybertruck will launch in 2023. The pickup truck looks otherworldly and had a divided opinion upon its revealing in 2019. Its armored glass failed when it was on the demo on the stage.

Can Elon Musk make Twitter more profitable?

​A brighter financial future?

Twitter has a big role in politics and culture worldwide, but has only occasionally turned a profit. With the microblogging site now reaching a $44 billion deal with Tesla boss Elon Musk, the question is: will it lead to a brighter financial future?



The Cybertruck will have a 500-mile range in its top-spec model. It will have a Tri-motor and reach 0 to 60 in just 2.9 seconds. In 2019, Tesla said that it would be priced at $69,900. However, we do not doubt that the price would have gone up.

When Tesla unveiled the Cybertruck, it did not have any competitors. Since then, we have seen the Hummer EV, Ford F-150 Lightning, and the Rivian R1T launch.
