The $290,000 price point represents a significant increase from the original $180,000, roughly 60% higher. However, it’s still well below the industry average for class 8 electric semi trucks. CARB data shows the average cost of a zero-emission Class 8 truck was $435,000 in 2024, meaning Tesla is undercutting competitors by about $145,000

Standard Range: 325 miles at 82,000 lbs, curb weight under 20,000 lbs
Long Range: 500 miles, curb weight 23,000 lbs, 1.2 MW peak charging
