Unloaded, 0-60 in 5 seconds. At GVW (80K lbs) 0-60 in 20 seconds.

500 mile range at GVW. Cost per mile $1.26, 20% cheaper than diesel. Enhanced autopilot standard.

Nuclear bomb proof (hyperbole) windscreen glass, because regular windscreens break about once a year and that means the truck is out of service until it's replaced.

They are guaranteeing the cost of recharging which will be generated by solar.

Production starts in 2019. They already have pre-orders.

Responses:

They revealed the Tesla Roadster, too. 0-60 in 1.9 seconds. Fastest production car ever. 8.9 sec 1/4 mile. 620 mile range. - TWuG, neck model Nov 16, 21:31 7
- At some point, that gets so fast, it’s dangerous. -- nm - Mop Nov 16, 22:10
- that kinda makes Ludacris speed seem pedestrian, that's getting into warp speeds. -- nm - zeitgeist Nov 16, 21:56
- Hmm, the Koenigsegg Agera RS can get up to 278mph, supposedly, so I guess that's the number they're saying they can beat. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 16, 21:35 4
  - cars at this level need really expensive tires that last only 4,000 miles at $10k each -- nm - zeitgeist Nov 16, 21:59
  - I think they mean quickest, not fastest. -- nm - TWuG, neck model Nov 16, 21:38 2
    - That's what I thought, too, but seeing the Agera number I'm not so sure. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 16, 21:40 1
      - The specs in my post are for the base model, so the upgrade may be faster. -- nm - TWuG, neck model Nov 16, 21:41
