Tesla, in its invite for the event has put out a teaser of the truck that confirms the design when compared to a few spyshots that have been seen on the internet earlier. The cabin sits high and the truck has a wide stance with LED daytime running lights and LED headlamps along with orange LED marker lights that are a compulsory requirement for large trucks under United States DMV law.

In terms of range though, we expect the Tesla electric semi truck to have a low range or mid range hauling capacity and not a long distance hauler as the electric battery range would limit that. The electric semi truck will also be expected to have features like quick charging that will give it access to the electric Superchargers that have been installed by Tesla and are free to use for all Model S and Model X owners but chargeable for the Model 3 owners currently.
