TechnologyTesla marks launch of high-volume Semi production in Nevada
The dedicated Sparks factory is designed for 50,000 trucks a year, but Tesla has not disclosed its current production rate.
TLDR
Tesla announced on September 24 that it is launching high-volume production of the Semi at its dedicated factory in Sparks, Nevada. The milestone formalizes a ramp that began when the first truck left the new line in April, after limited pilot deliveries dating to 2022. Tesla's current lineup includes 325-mile and 500-mile variants, and the company claims both can recover up to 60% of their range in 30 minutes. The plant is designed for 50,000 trucks a year, but Tesla has not disclosed its current output, so that figure is a capacity target rather than a present run rate.
