The Silpo chain of stores asked Elon Musk for Tesla Semi electric trucks
Recently, Russia has begun to attack oil depots in Ukraine more frequently to provoke fuel shortages. This, in turn, can lead to problems with product delivery. To avoid this, the Silpo chain of stores asked Elon Musk for Tesla Semi electric trucks. Unfortunately, the CEO of Tesla has not yet responded to the request.
Constant bombardments by Russians of Ukrainian oil facilities might cause fuel shortage in Ukraine. No fuel = no food supply. Ready to test&try @Tesla Semi asap.
How mad is this @elonmusk?— Сільпо (@silpo_ua) April 5, 2022
It will be recalled that the Tesla Semi was unveiled in November 2017. The truck was planned to be launched in 2019, but as a result, the announcement was postponed. There is no new date yet, but it is rumored that the tractor will be released this year. It boasts not only a large power reserve, but also a drag coefficient of 0.36, autopilot and four engines. They will accelerate the tractor to 100 km / h in just 5 seconds. At full load, the figure will increase to 20 seconds.
By the way, at the beginning of the war, Elon Musk already helped Ukraine by providing satellite Internet Starlink. With his help, he even managed to restore the network in some parts of the country.
