Orders line up for Tesla Semi, electric truck race effectively over
Tesla\'s heavy-duty electric truck, the Semi, is moving beyond pilot operations after securing orders in the hundreds, particularly in U.S. port logistics. Electrek reported California-based logistics and charging infrastructure firms are signing contracts, including WattEV\'s 370-truck deal and additional orders through Forum Mobility. Buyers plan to deploy the trucks for port drayage around Los Angeles, Long Beach and Oakland, citing predictable routes, dedicated charging hubs and lower lifetime costs than diesel.
