Tesla's Semi factory in Nevada had its official launch last week, with CleanTechnica reporting that the Class 8 truck is shaping up to be another success story. The event marks a key step for the company's heavy-duty trucking program.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk was a no-show at the event. CleanTechnica's headline points to a reason with "because …" but the excerpt does not say what it is.
The factory launch signals that Tesla is moving ahead with scaling Semi production. As the truck gains momentum, the new Nevada facility could help push Tesla deeper into the freight market.
