In a shocking announcement that’s shaking the global trucking industry, Elon Musk just confirmed Tesla is going full throttle on mass production of the Tesla Semi — and the numbers are unreal. At a price tag of just $200,000, the all-electric beast is now poised to disrupt everything we thought we knew about long-haul transport.
At Tesla’s newest Gigafactory press event, Musk took the stage with bold energy, declaring, “The age of diesel is over.” Behind him stood a fleet of the new Semi trucks — sleek, silent, and futuristic. But it wasn’t just the design that blew people away — it was what these machines could do.


With a 500+ mile range on a single charge, zero emissions, and 0–60 acceleration in under 20 seconds fully loaded, the Tesla Semi defies all expectations of what a big rig should be. And now, Musk says 1 million units are heading for production.
How? Tesla has reportedly developed a breakthrough battery system and new manufacturing process that dramatically reduces costs — allowing for mass scalability at unheard-of speeds. Industry analysts were stunned. “If he pulls this off, diesel fleets are officially on life support,” one expert commented.
