Our new 125 kW Basecharger is designed for longer dwell times and overnight charging of Semis. It's the "home charging" for heavy-duty fleets. It features a fully integrated design that eliminates the need for a separate AC-to-DC cabinet, simplifying installation. The 6 meter cable offers layout flexibility for all depots. Up to 3 Basechargers can be daisy-chained on a single breaker (sharing 125 kVA) to further reduce installation and operational costs.
Businesses can purchase and install Semi chargers, powering electric trucking - 1.2 MW Megacharger for quick stops - 125 kW Basecharger for longer stays Learn more about Semi Charging for Business and pricing: tesla.com/semi-charging-for-…

Here, in all its glory, is the exclusive first look at the massive @Tesla Semi factory. Our @corememory crew went to Nevada to see the line come to life, as it gets ready to pump out thousands of all-electric trucks. We saw the new cab and went on a drive too. Wunderbar!

During rides, it’s common for drivers to comment on how good the turning radius is, but they’re only 3/4 of the way to lock. I’ll chime in “oh you can keep going” and they turn the wheel more and are blown away. Maneuvering in tight urban spaces is critical.
