Tesla Semi   

The quickest acceleration—from 0-100 km/h in 20 seconds, fully loaded. Instant traction control with four independent motors. Quickest up the grades.  Electric energy costs are half those of diesel. With fewer systems to maintain, the Tesla Semi provides $200,000+ in fuel savings and a two-year payback period.    Enhanced Autopilot helps avoid collisions, a centered driver position provides maximum visibility and control, and a low center of gravity offers rollover protection.

0-100 km/h w/ 36,000 kg Load = 25 sec,    Speed up 5% Grade = 100+ km/h ,    Range = 475 or 800 kilometers =    $230,000 (approx)
