Tesla will officially open the first factory to mass-produce the heavy electric truck Semi in Sparks, Nevada. CEO Elon Musk will use this to enter the heavy truck sector. Tesla first unveiled the Semi truck in 2017 and delivered it in small quantities to its first customers in 2022, including core customer PepsiCo. The ribbon-cutting ceremony on Thursday will be livestreamed online at 9 p.m. EST, or 6 p.m. local time. When the plant was put into operation, Tesla's core electric vehicle business faced increasingly fierce competition around the world; at the same time, high diesel prices brought potential opportunities for the commercial truck sector to shift to electrification.
