The New Electric Supertruck Arrives

Well, after his recent shock announcement that such a thing even existed, Elon Musk and Tesla have announced and demonstrated their new electric "heavy rig" truck.

What does this mean for things like haulage and moving companies?

The original announcement

A few months back, Musk made one of his famous "oh, in passing... " type announcements. This delivered the news, with all the razzmatazz and drama that might be expected of someone saying "oh, I think it'll rain tomorrow", that he would be shortly showing an all-electric and high-tech haulage rig.

Virtually all the industry pundits were shocked and excited. Some were hugely sceptical that this was possible in the few short months between Musk's announcement and his target date for the truck being presented to the world.
