Wow. That is impressive

Hope they have good brakes for that acceleration.

Too bad it will be limited to 70 and it will try to pass another big rig that's going 69.5. Diesel or electric, there will still be a rolling road block for miles.

They’ll produce about 350 of ‘em by 2030...if everything goes right

The level of rage I feel when I see this I’m surprised I don’t start shooting force lightning or some shite.

Every competitor will beat them to market. And do so at a lower price and with better quality.
But I can’t wait for autonomous big rigs to replace a lot of shitty truck drivers.

Hope it can find a recharging station in 50 miles
Posted on 9/22/18 at 5:37 pm to CAD703X
We definitely need faster semis on the road

TBH truck drivers are usually alright compared to women and Asians and old people.

Giant slot cars are cool.

Sounds like gear whine, which it is. Turbo whine sounds much better.

I'd take a Nikola One over a Tesla any day. Much better technology, actual implementation, and the owner isn't a gigantic douche

That's the beauty of electric drive, can use electro-dynamic braking by having the drive motor act as a generator and dump energy back into the battery, stopping the truck and charging the battery with energy that would normally be lost as heat with normal friction brakes.

I wonder what kind of load it can pull getting 300 miles per charge.
Posted on 9/22/18 at 9:31 pm to Cosmo
Already had one pull up to my companies HQ with a trailer behind it a month ago

Problem is that range plummets in cold weather. These will be good trucks for companies that need things hauled relatively short distances in temperate climates.
