据 InsideEVs 报道，特斯拉已在内华达州的 Gigafactory 工厂开始批量生产这款名为 “Semi” 的重型卡车，并于本周首次向客户交付了产品。这款卡车首次亮相是在 2017 年，距今已有九年时间。其充电速度可达 1.2 兆瓦，特斯拉称这种充电速度能够在 30 分钟内为电池补充 60% 的续航里程。
Tesla has begun volume production of the Semi at Gigafactory Nevada with first deliveries this week, nine years after showing the truck, and rates it at 500 miles of range and 1.2 megawatts of charging. It has already installed more than 100 megawatt-capable stalls at 21 European sites, although the truck is not due in Europe until 2027.
不过，特斯拉公布的续航里程数据需要满足特定的使用条件：车辆总重量为 82,000 磅、行驶速度为每小时 55 英里、环境温度为 20 摄氏度、行驶在平坦路面上，并且需要安装特定的空气动力学套件以及符合相关标准的干式货车拖车。该卡车由三台电动机驱动，最大输出功率可达 800 千瓦。
Tesla has started volume production of the Semi at Gigafactory Nevada, with the first deliveries this week, InsideEVs reported. The Class 8 truck was first shown in 2017, nine years ago. It charges at up to 1.2 megawatts, which Tesla says adds 60% of range in 30 minutes. The range comes with conditions.
欧洲市场预计要到 2027 年才能正式收到这款卡车。特斯拉已在德国、法国、英国、瑞典和比荷卢地区（Benelux）的 21 个地点安装了超过 100 个充电设施，这些充电设施的充电功率均达到 1 兆瓦以上。不过，这款卡车本身要到 2027 年才会正式在欧洲上市销售。特斯拉的卡车和充电设备都采用了 MCS 3.2 接口标准。
Tesla rates the Long Range at 500 miles and the Standard Range at 325, both at 1.7 kWh per mile, and publishes the conditions alongside them. They are measured at 82,000 pounds gross, 55 miles an hour, 20 degrees Celsius, on flat ground, with a tandem axle aero kit and a compliant dry van trailer. Drive power is up to 800 kW from three motors. Europe waits until 2027.
根据欧洲法规的要求，欧洲核心货运网络上的每 60 公里范围内必须至少设置一个功率不低于 350 千瓦的充电站（ICCT 有相关记录）。虽然特斯拉的充电设施具备更高的充电功率，但这属于可选配置（而非强制性要求）。值得注意的是，特斯拉在这些充电设施的建设工作是在卡车正式上市之前就已完成。
Tesla is installing more than 100 megawatt-capable stalls across 21 European sites in Germany, France, Britain, Sweden and the Benelux countries. The truck itself is not due here until next year. Both truck and charger use the MCS 3.2 connector. European law asks for less.
关于电池性能的数据并非特斯拉官方公布的数据：根据提交给加州空气资源委员会（California Air Resources Board）的文件，这款卡车的电池续航里程分别为 500 英里（长续航版本）和 325 英里（标准续航版本），但特斯拉并未公开这些具体数值。该卡车使用的电池为特斯拉在德克萨斯州 Gigafactory 工厂生产的 4680 电池单元；不过与特斯拉在乘用车中使用的同类电池相比，这些电池的性能表现并不理想。目前，瑞典是这款卡车的最大买家。
Charging points of at least 350 kW must sit every 60 km along the core European network for heavy goods vehicles, as the ICCT has documented. The megawatt layer above that is commercial rather than required. Tesla built it before it had a truck to sell here. The battery figures are not Tesla’s. A filing with the California Air Resources Board gives 822 kWh of usable capacity for the Long Range and 548 kWh for the Standard, neither of which Tesla has published. The Semi uses Tesla’s own 4680 cells from Gigafactory Texas. Those cells have underperformed supplier cells in its passenger cars. The biggest buyer is Swedish.
上月，Einride订购了500辆Semi半挂卡车，这是迄今为止任何地区公布的最大规模部署，计划用于加利福尼亚州、得克萨斯州、新泽西州、伊利诺伊州和佐治亚州的货运业务。一家瑞典公司正让美国卡车驶上美国道路。亚马逊持有该公司约12%的认股权证。真正卖力推销的是柴油车。
Einride ordered 500 Semis last month, the largest deployment announced anywhere, to run freight in California, Texas, New Jersey, Illinois and Georgia. A Swedish company is putting American trucks on American roads. Amazon holds warrants over about 12% of it. Diesel is doing the selling.
受乌克兰和伊朗战事推动，美国柴油均价已突破每加仑6.50美元，创下历史纪录。本周，一家运输企业联盟订购了2,500辆Semi半挂卡车，这大致会使美国电动卡车车队规模翻一番。等内华达州工厂产能全部释放后，特斯拉希望年产量达到5万辆。
Pump prices are averaging over $6.50 a gallon in the United States, a record driven by the wars in Ukraine and Iran. A coalition of shipping companies ordered 2,500 Semis this week, which would roughly double the American electric truck fleet. Tesla wants 50,000 a year once Nevada is at full capacity.
