    BS. The GVW limit is 80,000 lbs. I have yet to see any data detailing range and towing capacity for this vehicle. Fact is this vehicle weighs a huge amount because of the batteries. Saying that we were able to go x number of miles with an 80,000 GVW is meaningless. Tell me how much you were able to tow and how far you could go.

    • @randgrithr7387
      @randgrithr7387 6 месяцев назад +8

      Comparing the estimated weight to my sleeper cab, it can haul ~5,000 lbs less. But all the extra weight on the Tesla's drive axles makes it impossible to slide tandems for a legal weight distribution, so in reality I'm guessing it will top out around ~10,000 lbs less. The shipper would have to take special care organizing loads that are above 38,000 lbs, and that's if the product can even be rearranged.

      So what? In California, where all the Tesla Semis are deployed, a solo driver in a Tesla Semi can drive as far in a day as permitted by speed limits and HOS regulations, which is 11 hours x 55 MPH = 605 miles. So 295 to 1,395 if that range is simply wasted carrying extra diesel fuel around.

    This test is actually a pretty severe one, especially if you have to deal with the steep climb to Donner Summit on Interstate 80 east of Sacramento and long slopes of Tejon Pass with its high summer temperatures between Wheeler Ridge and Santa Clarita, CA. The fact the Tesla Semi did so well is a testament to the excellent engineering of this semitruck. Interestingly, the first major competitor to the Tesla Semi could be something from Hino, a subsidiary of Toyota. Expect a sleek-looking semi using Toyota-funded solid state batteries by 2026.

Electric truck may work for local (300-400 miles a day) but not for over the road.

  • @ELISainta
    @ELISainta 6 месяцев назад +4

    they're fine for short hauls but thats it, btw 70lbs is not a full load, 70k lbs is the gross weight with all included, now i contracted for pepsi before an drove their trailers an i noticed in the bill of landing the weight with like 400lbs to spare to the 80k lbs limit was about 36200 meaning that if it was hauling with 70k lbs gross weight the actual payload at best would be 26600 at best if considering a tesla tractor weighs the same as a volvo vnl 860 but due to the batteries i highly dought it, i would estimate a 3000lbs increase on teslas side therefore the actual payload was around 23600 or less, which is light, so light in fact i would be very careful not to lock up the trailer wheels driving in Montana due to us considering a load under 25k lbs a light trailer

    • @randgrithr7387

      The Tesla semi is calculated to be around 27,000 lbs. Which makes me wonder if all the extra weight on the drives will limit payload weight due to tandem sliding.

      Demonstrated payload is 44,000 lbs. of concrete highway barriers on a flatbed trailer at 82,000 lbs. GCVW, so probably 43,000 lbs. in a slightly heavier dry van trailer.

  • @cdnbrit
    @cdnbrit 7 месяцев назад +3

    You are so Incorrect regarding weights of transport trucks. A 5 axle combination is allowed to be 80,000 lbs total. Combined weight. That also depends on the Bridge Formula, Axle weights especially. NO way your precious truck hauled 70,000 lbs weight. Let's see... It's simple. Let's assume the Tesla weighs around 30,000 lbs. Trailer looked like a 48ft, so i'll say it weighs around 10,000 lbs. So looks to me like the Tesla can haul roughly 40,000 lbs. I know nobody will agree cuz everyone loves precious tesla, But the real facts and numbers are not being shown. It's just P.R.

    Tesla is a solid lvl 3 autonomy.
    Since China has a high level of ‘centralisation’ it can actually work there by fragmenting into two categories: high-speed highway commute which is good for the economy and limited by territory robotaxis (mapping, sensors) since a taxi service is limited to a particular city/area. It is not general FSD, however, just big cities and intercity commute (70% of the traffic).

      _Tesla is a solid lvl 3 autonomy._
      That would only be FSD, and FSD Beta doesn't meet SAE requirements for SAE Level 3 driving automation. Level 3 allows fallback "in a timely manner" (MB Drive Pilot uses 10 seconds), while FSD requires the driver to take over immediately. Until FSD can allow delayed takeover by the driver, it's still Level 2.

    I was told by a Toyota employee working on the fuel cell project that they use the Tesla semi to transport their materials that they're using to build a fuel cell network throughout California. They're aren't enough Tesla semis, so Toyota is now developing a diesel/fuel cell hybrid semi, which imo is the best option. Toyota will also start focusing on fuel cell passenger vehicles more than electric vehicles. During the Summer, I had 2 members of the Olympic Committee as passengers. They talked about how the Olympics will no longer be a part of the pre-games, and that the Olympic trademark/symbol will also not be used for pre-games. This is due to money distribution issues and how they're tired of going through so many channels. I do Uber in SF, so I hear lots of things.

    From someone been driving a Tesla model 3 for a week now doing rideshare and a retired trucker with around a million miles. I can say that Tesla is a great vehicle to drive. It will stay at the temperature that you last set while it’s plugged into a charger. So, if you set temp at 65F it will keep that without losing power/ miles. Tesla hates to change batteries when they are not under 10% and you can go from 0-60 without losing all your energy doing so. That means you will only lose what you would have lost with the same amount of miles. Also, everything is on the tablet to control the whole vehicle settings. You can customize inside lights, outside lights and horn to how you like it. It has face recognition on the tablet that once you use the vehicle enough it will start without you having to card screen (card key) in. You can also customize the braking and steering wheel the way you like it. Seat same, it has cameras all over the inside and outside the vehicle that if you were in an accident that your story is told without guessing. The bad part is that you can’t feel the weight of the load so I bet you can’t tell if something is off on the load. I bet Tesla can add an arm autopilot line hookup if we want one. Maybe they can design auto landing gear rollup and drop to the setup. The point is, if we think it maybe they can add it and allow the driver control from the cab.

    Cheers. The actuators would surely be machine produced though by a machine designed by humans. Or maybe AI? The plaid motors for the S and X are of the hair pin 'winding' type for the stator. Wires are round so you lose more space than you would with square 'wires'. Huge increase in efficiency .. less power required and more power output. Exceptionally stable magnetic field The Semi has a couple at the rear for acceleration / uphill but is otherwise moved by a single 'standard' motor. GM actually invented the process many many years ago but couldn't make it stick. 10-15 years ago. Rivian are using pin motors and maybe VW. The motors for the Gen. 3 are without rare earths because they have or will have such command over the generated electromagnetic field. Point being is that the Tesla 'motor dept' is going to be full of clever people who see actuators as the motors they are. Tesla are looking for someone to develop a system to assemble the bot so they must have all of the ingredients... or at least enough to start off with.

Another problem is fully charging.... Which can be avoided by a setting in most cases, or simply by unplugging. Also you need to see the charging speed in relation to the batteries' capacity.

    1:39 You failed to mention there were 2 drivers. 1 driver can only drive 11 hours per day. So, to achieve 1076 miles he'd have to go at 98 mph. I smell BS. PS, its only 8 hours max in Europe
    1:42 It wasnt a full load of about 70,000 LBs. It was a GVM of 72,000Lbs. Seeing as Tesla refuses to tell us the TARE, nobody knows the cargo mass. Notwithstanding the GVM was 10,000 LBs light
    2:33 You dont know how to compare correctly. Apply some critical thinking and math. Tesla used to say 2 Kwhr/miles, now its 1.7, but it's an "estimate". Why the change? 2 other vehicles were very close at 2.0 and 2.2.
    Charging was done on 1MW chargers. How many of those are there around the country - f^&kall. So try it on a 350Kw charger!

      I bet that there’s electrical service at every load/unload dock, so they could add a charger at each regular stop too. No need to go to a gas station then, since they stop for 30-60 min to load or unload.

      They aren’t bragging that EVs are better than diesel trucks in mileage or haulage, at least not yet. But these aren’t the only yardsticks for efficiency. There’s cost, maintenance, environmental friendliness. All of which EVs are better. Even on mikeage and especially haulage the EVs aren’t too far behind the diesel trucks. Give it a few more years.

    Three fast charges a day? Those batteries won't last a year at that rate. Just watch what happens to Lyft drivers when using a Tesla.

    • @Big_Ben_from_La_Mesa
      @Big_Ben_from_La_Mesa 6 месяцев назад

      First of all, it wasn't three fast charges in a day; it was one fast charge at a Tesla Megacharger, and two slower charges at a Tesla Supercharger.
      Out of millions of Teslas in the US, some have had premature battery failures; and some of those have been Lyft or Uber drivers, often after exceeding the warrantied mileage. But that's not evidence that batteries in general will fail within a year if fast charged. in fact, Recurrent has recently released a massive study showing that fast charging of modern batteries has very little effect on battery life; "The results show no statistically significant difference in range degradation between Teslas that fast charge more than 90% of the time and those that fast charge less than 10% of the time."
      In any event, if they do fail, it's on Tesla, because there's a 1 million warranty on the batteries. So you can be pretty confident that Tesla has made sure that the Tesla Semi batteries *won't* fail prematurely when fast charged, because obviously that's going to be the most frequent charging experience. Best to peddle your FUD elsewhere.

    • @Big_Ben_from_La_Mesa
      @Big_Ben_from_La_Mesa 6 месяцев назад

      ​@@theoracleprodigy You sound like you're at least willing to consider new evidence, but also that you're just copying what other folks say. If not, you'd have taken a few seconds to verify the 50k warranty claim; and if you had, you'd have learned that the battery warranty is actually 8 years or 120,000 miles on all Model 3s and Model Ys except the Model 3 RWD, for which it's 8 years or 100,000 miles. For Models S and X, it's 8 years or 150,000 miles. Just for comparison, the longest drivetrain warranty I know of for ICE cars is the Kia/Hyundai 100,000 mile drivetrain warranty; and except for the lowest-cost Tesla model, which matches this, all Tesla battery mileage warranties are either 20% or 50% longer.
      To repeat; just because a few Tesla batteries in Uber cars failed shortly after going out of mileage warranty, doesn't prove that frequent fast charging damaged the batteries; and the Recurrent study showed conclusively that it doesn't. If this happened to many or most of these, there might be a case; but I only know of a few. And if this *were* the case, the word would get around, and *no one* would be using Teslas for Uber or Lyft; but many still are, due to the fuel savings vs. ICE cars.
      One of the failures I'm aware of was CYBRLFT in San Diego, who had an RWD Model 3 with the 100,000 miles warranty; but it still went 120,000 miles before failing.
      Undoubtedly some Tesla Semi batteries will fail before the 1 million mile warranty; but that'll be on Tesla, not the owner.
      You haven't provided any evidence for your claim that Tesla is not standing behind the warranty if you fast charge. There was one recent case where a Tesla owner *claimed* that Tesla rejected a battery warranty claim just because he drove through water; but that's only one side of the story, and someone who had a claim rejected legitimately would have a strong incentive to lie about the circumstances.
